Writing Events
There are several events the Schreibzentrum / Writing Center organizes throughout the academic year.
Long Night of Writing
The Long Night of Writing allows you to get started on your writing project. During the event we will give impulses for taking those crucial first steps, how to handle writing hurdles and how to engage with academic literature. Writing next to other people, as opposed to doing it alone, can give you that boost of motivation that you have been missing! Our team is on hand to answer any question you might have.
The 20th Long Night of Writing will take place on 19 February 2026 on campus.

You can find reports and impressions from the Long Night of Writing on the website of the Media and Information Centre.
Writing Marathon
Work intensively on your own writing project! More than one day you will have the chance to make progress with your writing project. We offer you the whole day consultation and advice.
The last Writing Marathon took place from February 26 to 28 2024. Please click here for further information.
The last Writing Half Marathon took place from February 27 to February 28, 2023. You find information on this event here.
