Industrial Engineering – Challenges in the Next Decade

The purpose of the workshop is to familiarise students with various tools and methods in Industrial Engineering to stand the industrial challenges of the next decades via artificial intelligence (e.g. metaverse applications), management concepts for global companies (international management) as well as product design (gear design). The individualisation of products, organisations and work is reflected in historical development towards the future steps of change (Industry 4.X). Profound leadership skills are highly important in industrial corporations and will be a key part of this class.

The basic concept of this course is to transmit short overviews and insights into today´s tools and methods transitioning fast to practical examples in personal exercises and workshops. The inputs come from actual situations or use cases of the industry.

Course leader

In each class, the hands-on courses are led by experts from practice who support you in taking a global perspective on the challenges ahead.

Target group

All Master's degree students in the fields of STEM/engineering studies. Also senior year's Bachelor’s degree students can apply for a place in the pogramme.
