Study projects are an opportunity for the students to apply the theoretical knowledge in practice. For this purpose, they organize in small groups and work regularly on a practically oriented topic. Using state-of-the-art presentation methods, they present their results to all participants in the project and explain their approach in a subsequent discussion. As part of the study projects, concrete practical problems are discussed, making them particularly suitable for business cooperations.
