Seminar Urban Computing
The idea of this seminar is to give students insights into actual public service challenges. Thereby, our focus is on citizen-centered design of new services, technologies, and business models. At the kick-off session, various topics from and for Swiss network industries (as Post, SBB and Swisscom, etc.) will be introduced. For each topic, a project is supposed to be developed by student groups (preferably of two) to get a deeper knowledge in the respective topic. In the final presentation, the compiled data, information and knowledge must be shared with the fellow students.

Teaching
| Learning Outcomes | This seminar offers students the possibility to work on interesting topics in the area of citizen-centered services-to-be; it is open for all students in the BeNeFri cooperation. Thereby, the students will be required to get a deep understanding of the topic of their choice, present project proposals at the mid-term (i.e., 20% of the grade) and final presentations (i.e., 30% of the grade) and write a final paper (i.e., 50% of the grade). The students will be split into groups of two students each group; however, individual projects are also possible. Each group (or likewise single student) will receive a clear assignment, which is feasible within the semester time. |
