Practical Project 1

level of course unit

Consolidation

Learning outcomes of course unit

Practical projects primarily serve to gather field experience. The first step is to raise awareness of the problem by making practical observations and analyses. Subsequently, individual problem-solving approaches should be formulated and, if necessary, pursued, thus enabling the students to acquire solution competence.
While students can deepen and improve their subjectspecific competences, complementary competences such as social competence, risk management, budgeting competence and economically responsible decision-making competence are also solidified.

prerequisites and co-requisites

Basic subjects

course contents

To prepare the students optimally for problems in working life, practical tasks are worked on in groups, or field experiences are obtained under the guidance of the course instructors. The students contribute their acquired knowledge and compare it with observations and experiences in the context of the integrative case studies.
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 instructor if necessary: Planning, coordination, budgeting, control, evaluation and final reporting are in the hands of the students.
