course contents
To prepare the students optimally for problems in working life, practical tasks are worked on in groups, preferably on the basis of commissions from partners from industry or public institutions, or field experiences are obtained under the guidance of the course leader. The students bring their acquired knowledge to bear and apply it to real projects. While the students can deepen and improve their subject-specific competences, complementary competences such as social competence, team skills, problem-solving and decision-making competence, risk management and budgeting competence are also fostered.
Based on a client briefing (by the course instructor or external partners such as associations and companies), the students work on the presented projects independently, only guided by the course instructors if necessary: Planning, coordination, budgeting, control, evaluation and final reporting are in the hands of the students. The role of the course leader is focused on project coaching.
