Elective Courses
Cross-Disciplinary Research and Development in Medicine and Engineering
The main goal of this course is to demonstrate the differences in communication between the fields of medicine and engineering. Since such differences become the most evident during actual collaborative work, the course is based on a current project in physiology research that combines both subjects.
Coaching Innovations-Projekte
This course prepares and supports tutors of the innovation project. Topics are: Overview of the role and mindset of a coach, coaching methodologies and supervision of individual cases, building competencies by exchanging good practices as well as interventions to foster team spirit. Individual coaching sessions complement the competency development.
Skills for Creativity and Innovation
Students learn about theories on creative behaviour in teams, experience and reflect their own behaviour in exercises, analyse and apply methods (e.g. communication, creativity methods, workshop facilitation), and transfer their knowledge to facilitate creativity sessions and skill trainings. The focus of this lecture is on building skills – not just acquiring knowledge.
