Abstract
“A good beginning is half way to success” is what a Chinese proverb teaches. Hence, the OTM Academy offers our next-generation researchers far more than other doctoral symposiums usually do.
OTMA PhD students get the opportunity to publish in a highly reputed publication channel, namely, the Springer LNCS OTM workshops proceedings. The OTMA faculty members, who are well-respected researchers and practitioners, critically reflect on the students’ work in a highly positive and inspiring atmosphere, so that the students can improve not only their research capacities but also their presentation and writing skills. OTMA participants also learn how to review scientific papers. And they enjoy ample possibilities to build and expand their professional network. This includes dedicated personal feedback and exclusive time of prominent experts on-site. In addition, thanks to an OTMA LinkedIn group, the students can stay in touch with all OTMA participants and interested researchers. And last but not least, an ECTS credit certificate rewards their hard work.
