20 Years of Co-creation Using Case Based Learning

The teaching program IP - Integrated Product Development has been implemented annually with great success for 20 years, which means that this format has gained a high level of acceptance among companies from a wide range of industries. The participating students acquire professional skills in the area of PGE - Product Generation Engineering through the experience of the real development project and by applying activities and methods of product development, combined with a lecture that deals with the most recent cases from the business world. With the aim of bringing the co-creation formats to further student target groups with diverse needs, the format IP was analyzed and a general valid co-creation approach for case-based learning, was characterized by relevant success factors. Based on this, it was possible to transfer the success factors from IP contextual into the breadth (reaching a high number of students) and into the depth (gain of research competences) by means of two further formats.

System-integrated data acquisition in validation and operation of electric vehicles

The success of electro mobility depends on its sustainability for daily use. The integration of electro mobility will be supported by the benefits compared to existing mobility solutions and infrastructure. Currently, integrated concepts, models and methods for systematically evaluation of electro mobility’s adoption under different criteria are missing. Thereby, regarding at electro mobility as well as neighbour domains is important.
