Praxis
The aim of the courses in the Bachelor's and Master's degree programs is to ensure that students receive a theoretically sound and at the same time application-oriented education. For this reason, a balanced mix of theoretical models and directly practice-oriented content is taught. In research, too, our aim is to find scientific answers to practical questions. For this reason, we maintain close contact with corporate practice. Through our cooperation with companies, for example, students have the opportunity to get to know practical problems in the context of practical presentations and to make contacts for internships, theses or career entry.
