Competence Certificate

Alternative exam assessment. The basis for grading is the documents produced, the presentations during the course of the project, the artifact to be produced (e.g. algorithm, method, model, software, component) and the final presentation.

Competence Goal

After successful completion of the team project, the students can:

  • select and apply the methods, techniques and tools required for problem solving
  • systematically analyze a given problem in an interdisciplinary team and develop and evaluate an artifact-centered solution
  • constructively solve challenges and conflicts that arise in teamwork.

Content

The team project "Management and Technology" aims to prepare students for working in heterogeneously composed teams. 
A team of 4-5 students will work on defined interdisciplinary questions at the interface of economics and MINT subjects. The result of the projects should typically not only be a presentation or a report, but an artifact, e.g. a method, an algorithm, a model, a software or a component. 
The team projects already implement the concept of research-oriented teaching in the Bachelor's degree and aim to build up problem-solving competence in the students. 

Workload

The total of 270 working hours (9 credit points) per team member (4-5 members per team) are divided into the following tasks:

  • communication:  
    • Team meetings: 30 h (2h per week, 15 weeks),
    • Electronic exchange: 20 h,
    • Final presentation: 10 
  • Documentation and development: 
    • Analysis and design: 70 h,
    • Development: 90 h,
    • Tests and quality assurance: 50 h
