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 19th Long Night of Writing took place on 20 February 2025 on campus. Please click here for further information.
You can find reports and impressions from the Long Night of Writing on the website of the Media and Information Centre.
Rise & Write
During the three-day writing events in early summer, we combine writing with various mindfulness practices. While working on your text, you will challenge yourself both mentally and intellectually. Between writing sessions, you will have the opportunity to rest and refocus. To that end, we offer, among other options, yoga each day this summer. Previous themes for this event include mindfulness and physical movement (2022), yoga and embodiment (2023), and attention (2024).
Next event: July 15-17, 2025
