Cooperative Product Engineering

A central component of the offer is the close combination of theory and practice. In addition to attending seminars and specialist lectures, the focus is on the implementation of a project. In interdisciplinary teams, the KPE participants design a real series product or further develop a real product. Furthermore, the planning and evaluation of its production is in the foreground. The results are then presented to the industrial partner. The industrial partner of this year's KPE is Continental AG in Hanover.
