Although the course at all universities is intended to prepare you for later professional life, such as work in research, it differs at the different locations. Due to the proximity to various related institutions and different working groups, different priorities are set, which also leads to different equipment, such as special measuring instruments, and more intensive research in the respective field, which of course also influences teaching and opens up location-specific possibilities.

 

Using the respective module handbook and module plan for the course of study, the strengths and specializations of the respective location can be determined more precisely and can be an important point of reference when choosing where to study.

Working groups

A working group (AG) at a university usually consists of a person leading the group, who usually has or is aspiring to a professorship, and employees of the respective institute, i.e. students, doctoral candidates and postdocs. Together they conduct research on a scientific focus specified by the person in charge. These working groups can be limited in time if there is a research contract and this is fulfilled, or they are permanent working groups, which are then usually subject to certain conditions, such as a teaching contract. The number of working groups in an institute usually depends on the number of professorships awarded by the institute, since every professor naturally also wants to conduct research in addition to his or her mandatory teaching activities. This then happens in the working group.
