CARRIE B. DOHE, PhD"We have been working with Dr. Carrie Dohe since 2014. As part of the qualification of young scientists at the University of Stuttgart, she has given courses on the topics ‘Academic Writing and Publishing Research Articles in the Life Sciences and Natural Sciences’, ‘Academic Presentation and Conference English Skills’, ‘Academic Reading and Study Skills’ and ‘Time and Self-Management for Doctoral Students and Researchers’. Dr. Dohe has excellent knowledge in the fields of scientific writing and publishing, academic work and self-organization. The knowledge imparted was of great benefit to the participants for their courses. As an American, Dr. Dohe could give the participants valuable tips and suggestions on the linguistic level that make scientific writing in English more effective."

TESTIMONIALSProfessional Presentations
“Last Thursday I held a 10-minute presentation of my PhD thesis at a meeting of the Department of Nutrition and Facility Management of the Munster University of Applied Sciences. My supervisor told me I really impressed the dean. So, the presentation the week before in your class was the perfect preparation for that. I am really glad I had the chance to practice there.”
- Christina Strotmann, MBA |
Conference Preparation
“Ms. Dohe knew how to create a pleasant learning atmosphere in which the skills acquired could be strengthened. She competently accompanied the learning process with constructive comments and was able to respond to the individual needs of the participants. It was also very helpful that Dr. Dohe incorporated her own experience as an active scholar into the course. For anyone who would like to improve their ability to present themselves adequately at international conferences, I can strongly recommend participating in this course.”

Pursuing an Academic Career
“I have benefited greatly from Ms. Dohe's workshop on the ‘Academic Career Search’. Her engaging and informed instruction created a productive working atmosphere during the seminar, and her extensive handouts continue to be a tremendous help well beyond that. Shortly after the workshop, the knowledge I gained already helped me in a successful application. I would certainly attend a workshop with Ms.
Dohe again.” Steffen Schaub, doctoral candidate in English Language and Literature, University of Marburg |
