Further Courses

In addition to the lectures, we offer two seminars with a different focus to teach students how to work with scientific texts and present them to a specialist audience. In the practice-oriented project course, which is organized jointly with the Cyber-Physical Simulation and Materials Mechanics Groups students learn how to solve engineering problems using artificial intelligence methods.
