How to become a research professional.
Here you will find information and tools for literature assessment, expert support, literature management programmes and other services that facilitate scientific work.
SRH Berlin has purchased a campus license for the CITAVI Web software, which assists you in the process of scientific work from the initial research up to the final manuscript.
Imagine, you search the internet for suitable sources for your academic work. By clicking on the Citavi icon you can automatically collect interesting sources. Then you can integrate the collected information into your text. Finally, the program enables the automatic creation of a bibliography.
Since the literature is stored in this way, you can also index and categorise it. You can extract citations from the texts, arrange them systematically and connect them with your own thoughts and draft proposals.
Thanks to the web version, you can work on your projects wherever you have an Internet connection. Completely independent of the operating system of your device.
Start Citavi Team:
1. Open CITAVI Web
2. Register via campus license as SRH Hochschule Berlin
3. Login or register with SRH mail address
4. Follow further instructions for registration
Instructions on how to create a new project in CITAVI Web can be found here.
