Special features regarding research activitiesPolitical science in Greifswald is very strong in research; projects on various topics are constantly taking place at all chairs. Students are involved here as student assistants, in seminars or internships, which enables them to participate in research practice at an early stage. In addition, the research results and methods are dealt with intensively in courses, so that an integration of teaching and research takes place. Due to the small size of the institute, the synergy between research and teaching is particularly guaranteed.
