Course Contents/Program
In this workshop Dr. Volker Lesch and Christian Bäurer from Senacor Technologies AG will give
insights into agile project management techniques. Beside the theory of the agile project approach,
they will also give examples for the transfer of this theory to the daily business in large business-
and IT-transformation projects. Additionally, in hands-on sessions the agile approach SCRUM will be
exemplarily applied to develop ideas for a digital laboratory diary. A handout with more detailed
information can be found
here.
Please note, the language of this workshop will be German. If requested, an attendance certificate
can be provided.
The HGS-HIRe PEP is targeted at an audience of doctoral students interested in the topic and
advanced undergraduate students. The focus of the PEP is strongly on educational aspects to
enhance the research toolbox of the participants rather than on a scientific discussion about
the results and outcomes of the analyses.
