Program
Program Details
As part of the "Business and Technology" team project course, students work in small groups on interdisciplinary issues at the interface of economics and STEM subjects.
The outcome of the projects is typically not just a presentation or a report, but an artefact, e.g. a method, an algorithm, a model, software or a component.
During the pitch session at the Dialouge Day , students present their results and are then available to answer questions during the poster session.
In the summer semester 2024, the following questions were addressed by the students in cooperation with various institutes of the KIT-Department of Economics and Management:
- Quality control using machine learning on the basis of standardized,
- administration shell-based data models (WBK)
- Innovation Management: Goal-setting & project choice in Teams (IISM)
- Your IKIGAI in real-time (EnTechnon)
- Towards the Development of a Medical Software Device Business Model Framework (EnTechnon)
- Development of an LLM-based Interview Bot for User Research (IISM)
- A User-Friendly Web Application for the Taxonomy of Online Disinformation (FZI)
- Designing Micro Adventures – Für mehr Transferdenken an Universitaten (EnTechnon)
- Development of a digital "train the trainer" concept for transfer thinking at
- universities (EnTechnon)
- Digitalizing Payment for Human Subject Research: The KD2Lab Use Case (IBU)
- Probabilistic forecasts in practice: development of a prediction game for
- science communication (STAT, SME,EWIFO)
- Development of an AI-based tool for the ontological mapping of
- security knowledge (AIFB)
- Are you serious? Identifying (non-)verbal signals in video meetings (IBU)
- Development of an assessment tool for learning readiness and lifelong learning (IISM)
- Mapping Polarisation – Interpretable Visualisiations for Jounalism and NGOs (IISM)
