Parametric feature-based 3D-models are the base for current CAD systems used in mechanical and civil engineering as well as in architecture and other disciplines. An example is FreeCAD, an OpenSource-CAD-application with functionality similar to commercial programs such as CATIA, SolidWorks or Solid Edge. In addition to the creation of models, FreeCAD also allows for analysis (e.g. FEM), simulation and rendering. It can be extended through scripts in Python or plugins in C++.

The participants will model a parametric object for 3D-printing together in small interdisciplinary groups. In the process, they get to know typical CAD functionality used in a practical example, and beyond that learn about the theoretical foundations of CAD-modelling, the various modelling paradigms and the underlying data models. They come to know how to use Python scripts in order to analyse CAD models and automate modelling tasks.

Finally we are going to prepare the model for 3D print.

Deep learning is a class of artificial intelligence (AI) learning algorithms that centers around deep neutal networks. Also known as deep neural learning or deep neural network, it is the technology behind countless advances in artificial intelligence over the past years. Neural networks excel at supervised tasks such as image classification but are just as powerful when it comes to learning from unstructured and unlabeled data. 
This course builds on the module 'Introduction to Machine Learning' and provides a practical introduction to neural networks and deep learning. Knowing how learning algorithms work, you will get to know the basics behind neural networks and how they learn to predict complex concepts. Based on tangible practical exercises you will learn to implement, train and evaluate simple neural networks with the help of Python libraries (i.a. keras and tensorflow). Moreover the course will introduce you to various complex neural architectures like Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs).

This course offers a hands-on approach to programming in a matrix-based programming language.
Participants may chose whether to use Matlab or GNU Octave as a working environment, as the fundamental syntax is identical in both programming languages.

Programming in Matlab or Octave has several advantages widely recognized in academic and industrial fields of application.
The following aspects will be covered in the course:

• Matlab or Octave as high-level programming languages are easy-to-use thanks to an interactive programming environment (allowing for both command-line and GUI-based programming).
• Fundamental aspects of programming, including the use of scripts, functions, control structures,.., but also the "traps" to be considered when using a numeric approach to problem solving will be discussed.
• Matlab or Octave are "MATrix LABoratories", where performing mathematical operations is easy when the concept of matrix calculations is applied. You will learn how to use this for the efficient analysis of data and how to avoid writing long code.
• Solutions for almost any mathematical problem are available as functions and can be customized for individual use. In this introductory course, one focus is to properly use such functions based on examples and explanations provided in the software documentation.
• There is a variety of options to analyze and visualize data, which will be introduced in order to obtain a template to be used in one's proper study or research project.

The course will combine seminaristic online classes - which leave enough time for coding introductory examples together with the lecturer - with practical sessions, where the aspects above can be applied in exercises and small application projects.
Feedback sessions will allow to answer individual questions, e.g. on the analysis of one's proper data set or the use of specific toolboxes.

The 17 Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations 2015 are valid until 2030. The world community wants a humane life for all people. Natural resources shall be protected, poverty and hunger in all is forms should be combated. Health, high-quality education, and equality shall be promoted. What do those goals mean on the level of work and organisation? In the micro-political climate of organisations it should be asked how acting socially sustainable does look like. This becomes apparent in light of specific issues; with the pandemic-induced home office with digitally mitigated communication and cooperation, participation becomes a key question: How is participation in processes concerning specific employees possible when those are not on the premises but in their home office? Approaches of participation build specifically on effects promoted by dialogue and action in groups: the functions of holding and containment in groups, by group cohesion and –culture, va group-related thinking and decision-making. The goal of participation are based on humanistic insights, it answers to basic human needs. Participatory approaches are based on effects in groups, such as group cohesion and –culture, group thinking and decision making. How well does participation go with digitally mediated communication at work?
Participants in this seminar analyse topics of interest in this framework: In the start workshop, frames are set content-wise and methodological, also teams are founded. In five workshops students work on specific contents: 1 Ethic, humanistic, and health related foundations; 2 Resonance, world relation and health (Rosa, Rahm et al.); 3 Living learning in groups by theme-centered interaction (Cohn, Meyerhuber); 4 Basics of organisational development (Lewin; French & Bell); 5 Digital divide issues (van Dijk 2006). Digital tools promising participation will be analysed, as well as the new language emerging during the digital push. Students conduct one interview each with a practitioner, and include results in their workshop. An overall closing workshop helps to evaluate the insights gained.
Students work in a team of four on a topic. They create an adult education workshop and write a professional documentary. In all steps, the lecturer gives support, advice, and feedback. An accompanying writing-workshop of 30 minutes follows after each workshop.
All seminars of the general studies series „Sociology meets psychology: acting socially in organisations“ can be studied singular or as a set. Recommended for students in their 3rd semester, open for students from their 1st semester on, open for students from other faculties (BA, MA) and ERASMUS. As an intense training seminar, the group is limited to 19 participants (for chance of presence parts).
2 SWS: Fortnightly, starting in the 2nd week of the term, 3 full hours (s.t.!), Tuesdays from 5p.m-8p.m.. Apply reliable via Stud.IP; participation only with mandatory use of a camera for digital parts. All materials and communication via Stud.IP.

Whether it is coping with ‘Peak Oil’, meeting the challenge of climate change, helping farmers in poorer countries through fair trade, or finding ways to keep discarded products out of the landfills, sustainability issues are the biggest challenges facing businesses. The course shows how the complexities of sustainability issues can be integrated into marketing. The systematic, step-by-step approach of sustainability marketing involves: an analysis of socio-ecological priorities to complement conventional consumer and market research; an integration of ethical values into marketing strategy; the development of sustainability marketing strategies; a new consumer-oriented sustainability marketing mix of the ‘4 Cs’ (Customer Solutions, Communications, Customer Cost, Convenience) to replace the outmoded and producer-oriented ‘4 Ps’; and finally an analysis how innovation and marketing can go beyond responding to social change to contribute to a transformation to a more sustainable society. The course is ideally suited to both students and practitioners at many different levels and disciplines, including marketing, innovation, CSR, sustainability and environmental management.

The lecture “World in Transition” is offered by members of the German Advisory Council on Global Change (WBGU). The WBGU is an independent, scientific advisory body to the German federal government. Its principal tasks are to analyse global environment and development problems and to elaborate recommendations for action and research. In this lecture, the WBGU presents its flagship report “World in Transition – A Social Contract for Sustainability”. The lecture starts with an interview providing a comprehensive overview of the global transformation towards a low-carbon society. Subsequent lectures highlight the characteristics of the so-called »anthropocene«, including the main impacts of climate change. A detailed view on concepts of transformation is presented and aspects of technical and economic feasibility are adressed in detail. The role of the state and change agents in the transformation process are also examined. Finally, you will become familiar with some instruments and measures that can advance the great transformation towards sustainability. A special lecture focuses on the role of scientific advice in policy making and explains the functioning of the WBGU and how it produces scientific policy advice.
