Lehre-HOCH-Forschung

The project “Lehre-HOCH-Forschung” (teaching meets high-level research) is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) and aims to establish research-oriented teaching much earlier than traditional university formats. Within this project, the TECO group and the Chair for Pervasive Computing Systems at KIT implement sub-projects such as “Praxis der Software-Entwicklung (PSE)” and “Praxis der Forschung (PdF)”. Start: 2012 – present.

Develop and integrate new course structures that give students early exposure to research (not just lectures). In “Praxis der Forschung”, students go through the phases of a real research project: planning, proposal writing, executing, publishing results. Encourage students into research careers (some undergraduate students are going on to PhD positions at TECO).
