IT4Ideas
Problem: Research and teaching at universities are supported by highly complex processes. These include preparing courses, evaluating performance, submitting research proposals, informing students, indexing relevant literature and, last but not least, the academic work itself. Unfortunately, there are only a few individual IT solutions for these processes.
Content: In this IT project, an IT concept is to be developed to support the activities of an academic research and teaching unit. This includes a precise analysis of the individual processes and possible IT solutions. Based on this, a concept for the sensible composition of these partial solutions (e.g. web server/CMS, version management, literature management, LSF, etc.) must be developed. Subsequently, this concept is to be implemented as a prototype and a migration concept is to be designed.
Benefit: You will become more familiar with the internal structures of the scientific community in Germany and gain an insight into the work and structure behind the scenes of a teaching unit. The problem and the resulting IT solution are closely related to many industrial challenges that arise when designing and implementing new IT infrastructures.
