During their project work, the students will attend an attractive workshop program, in which they will learn project management (SCRUM), apply agile working methods, and train important future skills.

Programm Schedule

Students, PhDs, and alumni need to plan a workload of 100 hours (approx.) for their project work in addition to the workshop program.

The project results can vary from team to team - according to the ideas of the companies. They can be a concept, a demonstration, a piece of software, a prototype, a drawing, and what else you can think of. All results will be presented at the public Closing Ceremony at TUHH - together with all participants and the companies.
