Survey on citation styles and literature management programs at the faculties WISO and BWL

28 April 2023

The Library WISO/BWL conducted a survey among students in the WISO and BWL faculties in July/August 2022.

We wanted to find out,

  • What citation styles are used by students in our department,
  • whether the citation styles are prescribed and if so, by whom,
  • whether students work with literature management systems and thus rely on the use of standardized citation styles.

The results of the survey (PDF) (German only) are now available. We have prepared them in the form of a Power Point presentation.

Many thanks to the student offices that helped us distribute the survey!

Thank you also to all the students who participated in the survey!
We read your info and comments with great interest.

Currently, we are planning measures with which we can support you even better in writing your academic papers.
