The Virtual Seminar denotes a joint course from different universities. Participants will write and present a business plan in a team of interdisciplinary students. Since the students come from different universities effective group collaboration requires intensive use of ICT.

The Project Workshop gives students the opportunity to make use of their previously obtained knowledge from different domains within a team. Each team member is expected to autonomously solve a socially relevant problem, which is geared towards a practical application, using scientific methods within a limited time period. The results, workflow processes, and team experiences shall be presented to a broad audience at IHI Zittau.
