Writing the compiling part of an article thesis - lecture for doctoral candidates

The lecture provides practical advice for doctoral candidates on how to write the compiling part of an article thesis effectively, in particular in the field of industrial engineering and management. The main focus is on the writing process after the related articles have been completed. The lecture will help doctoral candidates in understanding the role of the separate articles and the thesis as a whole. It covers the general requirements for an article thesis and provides useful resources doctoral students can draw on during the writing of the compiling part. Doctoral candidates will obtain a good perception of thesis requirements and structure.
