I2S is a format designed to simultaneously teach technical content and promote entrepreneurial thinking and action. The event is cross-faculty, where students from the Faculty of Business Administration, the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and the Faculty of Design work together in mixed groups on a concrete project. Here you start with a concrete product idea, through a business model to the preparation of a start-up. This approach provides students with a holistic view of a product development process and conveys an understanding of interdisciplinary linkages, promotes value-oriented teamwork and enables strategic and operational entrepreneurial thinking and action
The concept of the seminar is to develop a solution concept for the given task as independently as possible. The lecturers mainly act as coaches for the teams on the way to the solution. In order to give the students a clear orientation and a clear specification for the expected achievements, an outline for the project is given by specifying milestones and performance packages linked to them. In addition, the necessary theoretical knowledge is imparted in theory sections. The main aim is to convey a holistic understanding and to illustrate the interdisciplinary links.

Feeding all people on earth remains a major challenge. In 2050, about 9.7 billion people will live on earth. According to the UN, about 690 million people are already suffering from hunger. How can we ensure effective, low-cost and sustainable forms of food production? In many supermarkets, we in Germany have an abundant supply of food, some of which has already made a long journey. Whether these are bananas from Tanzania, beef from Argentina or avocados from Colombia. In the context of food production, transport and processing, tons of climate-damaging CO2 are produced. How to ensure a sustainable production, processing and delivery of food? How can modern technologies be used to more effectively treat and, if possible, even prevent existing diet-related diseases?
In the weekly online seminar together with Durban Institute of Technology South Africa, King's College Nepal and Wroclaw University of Economics and Business we will work on relevant topics, opportunities and challenges, in the context of Sustainability in Food & Wellbeing and develop innovative, value-adding and sustainable solutions for the world.

REAL PROJECT #8 Creating energy transition (NAC) Interdisciplinary seminar of Fk13 / 2 ECTS
Topic: Energy | FK13
Instructors: Theresa Liegl | Sonja Wilhelm

Partners: Institute for Sustainable Energy Systems ISES, Impact for Future.
Our standard of living depends to a large extent on the availability of cheap energy, mainly obtained from fossil energy production. However, the production and use of this is also largely responsible for climate change and associated negative consequences for current and future generations. Providing CO2-free energy for all people on earth is therefore one of the biggest tasks for this century. Currently, the average total energy consumption (electricity, heat, mobility, industry, etc.) is about 60 kWh per person per day. However, there are big differences depending on the country a person lives in. In the global north, some countries consume up to 300 kWh per person per day, while in other parts consumption is less than 20 kWh per person per day. In addition, there are other important factors, such as the fact that by 2050, there will be approximately 9.7 billion people living on the planet.
How can effective and efficient renewable energy generation be ensured in all parts of the world? What are the main sources of renewable energy? Do we need to change the way and amount of energy we use? Are technological developments helping or driving energy consumption?
Deciphering these questions requires solutions in all areas of energy generation, distribution, storage, and smart consumption! In this one-semester seminar, we will explore relevant issues, opportunities, and challenges in the context of sustainable energy supply, and develop innovative, value-added, and sustainable solutions for different parts of the world.
