Special features regarding teaching

For Jacobs, the highest standards in teaching mean a strong interaction between professors and students as well as challenging curricula. Within the department, the courses offer hands-on learning through interactive business games, simulations, case studies, and creative group work. In addition, smaller class sizes, tutorials and feedback sessions enable effective learning and understanding of the theoretical concepts learned in class. During their studies, students also receive individual academic support and career advice.

Special features regarding the international orientation

The university and department are dedicated to internationalism. With the working language being English, all students can quickly find their way around and communicate with international staff without any problems. The professors of the faculty have international networks of universities and companies and can thus provide optimal support for students when selecting work placements abroad as well as further career paths.

Exchange universities for stay abroads

University of Groningen, Netherlands; Kadir Has University, Turkey; Texas Tech University, US.

Special features regarding the equipment

The department has a laboratory with various manufacturing technologies, in particular 3D printers in various dimensions, which are used both in research and in teaching.

Special features regarding research activities

Our research focuses on the following topics: Industry 4.0, Digital Transformation, Intelligent Data Management, Sustainable Supply Chain Management and Sharing Economy. On the one hand, we examine the effects of technological developments on industry. On the other hand, we are investigating more sustainable ways of delivering on the last mile and sustainable uses of crowd sourcing in logistics. Our methodological approach is based on both quantitative (simulation and empirical data analysis) and qualitative methods (case studies and interviews)

Support for founders

If students already have concrete plans to found their own company, they can join the StartUp Option, in which they develop their business plan. The Startup Option is an alternative to an internship in the 5th semester and enables students who are particularly interested in starting their own company to concentrate on developing their business plan. The students participating in the Startup Option are supported by the StartUp coordinator. At the end of the StartUp Option, students submit their business plan.

Other special features

We place a strong emphasis on sustainability. Our students learn to design systems and processes in such a way that they not only meet the desired economic requirements, but also environmental and social requirements. To this end, our programme includes various projects in which students tackle the complexity of striking a balance between the three dimensions of sustainability (e.g. designing a sales network that is cost-effective, enables fast product delivery, but also leads to lower CO2 emissions).
