Please comment on your work at DESY*

We would like to hear about:
- How interesting did you find your project?
- How much have you learnt/gained from it?
- Was the project well defined, prepared and supervised?
- Technical quality of infrastructure and communication
- Ideas and suggestions for improvements

Please comment on the lecture programme*

• What did you like in general and what not?
• Was the amount, length and difficulty level of the lectures ok?
• Do you have improvement suggestions for the selection of lecture topics (e.g. topics that are missing or topics that should get less coverage), the programme structure and session style?

You can give feedback to individual lectures at the end of the questionnaire.

Project Work - Lecture Ratio

much more lecture time neededa bit more lecture time neededfine as isa bit more time for project work (less lectures)much more time for project work (only few lectures)

Regarding the amount of time spend on the lectures and the project work, what do you think about the ideal distribution

Please comment on the smaller guided tours, if you participated

The organisation of the smaller guided tours was a new part of this year's programme. Therefore we would really appreciate feedback, general one (was it worthwhile) as well as regarding the organisation, comments on tours as well as suggestions for additional ones.

What did you really like about the programme?

What did you not like at all?
