Event details

Description

The workshop series „RWTH template in LaTeX“ shows how the LaTeX templates in RWTH Aachen University’s corporate design can be used efficiently for key communication formats—letters, presentations, and scientific posters. Standardized templates ensure a consistent and recognizable appearance across all documents. At the same time, the LaTeX templates support the principles of Open Science by enabling transparent, reusable, and easily adaptable formatting of scholarly content.
In the individual modules, participants learn how to integrate the provided templates into their own working environment, customize them, and use them for their specific research and communication needs.

Objective

After the workshop, participants will be able to create presentations in LaTeX using the RWTH template that are consistent, professional, and suitable for presenting research results, teaching, or project meetings.
