MM1 Marketing and Information
This Module delved into leveraging data analysis to enhance business outcomes. We engaged in hands-on exercises to dissect marketing data through R-Studio and Python. Furthermore, we navigated the legal complexities of data handling, focusing on GDPR compliance. The coursework equipped me with the skills to meticulously analyse customer data, optimising marketing strategies.

EM1 Integrated Product Development by Agile Systems Design
This module offers a comprehensive introduction to the processes of product development. We are taught methods of Product Generation Development and Agile Systems Design. We also learned methods in the product planning phase, such as ideation methods, user personas, and product profiles. Additionally, we studied Industrial Design Engineering with a focus on user-centered design for human-machine interfaces and usability analyses in different use cases.

MM2 Finance and Value
This module offered three insightful courses: Sustainability, Management Accounting, and Strategic Financial Management. In the Sustainability course, we focused on how businesses can implement environmentally and socially responsible practices while still achieving profitability. The Management Accounting course provided a deep dive into financial documents and processes, such as balance sheets and income statements, equipping us with the skills to analyze and interpret financial data to support business decisions. Lastly, Strategic Financial Management expanded our understanding of financial valuation by teaching us about discounted cash flow analysis and how to assess the payoff of business ventures and projects. This comprehensive approach has equipped us to make financially sound decisions that align with broader business strategies and sustainability goals.

MM3 Decisions and Risk
From this module, I studied different facets of quantitative decision making comprising general model building, risk assessment, random effects, and multiple agents.
The module is divided into four courses: “Decision Modeling” trained us using CPLEX to build Linear programming for the operation research. Building upon this course, “Robust and Stochastic Optimization” and “Risk Aware Decisions” then focus on bridging the gap to reality by introducing different types of uncertainty and risk-awareness considerations into the models. Finally, “Interactive Decisions” analyses from a game-theoretic point of view how decisions are made in the presence of multiple decision makers each focusing on individual interests.

EM3 Simulation and Target Values in PD
Simulation, Target Costing, Virtual Twins & Immersive Environments, Project Work of PLUTO.
8.7.2024-20.7.2024
EM4 Validation and Verification in PD
In the first week, our class worked on the PLUTO project. At the same time, we attended classes on test-based product development by professor Ott, where we learned validation models like the V model and X-in-the-loop. On Friday, we gave our final presentation at IPEK by the assistance from our instructor Leonard.
In the whole second week, we attended seminars by Simon from Lucerne University of Applied Science. He taught us how to integrate System Engineering methods into ecological product lifecycle management. This was one of my favourite classes from the master's program.
