Organization of Product Development in the Age of Generative AI
Kata Schiller, Arthur Seibel
⌄
Die Veranstaltung untersucht die Organisation von Produktentwicklungsprozessen in kleinen und mittleren Unternehmen (KMU) anhand eines klassischen, phasenorientierten Referenzmodells der Produktentwicklung. Aufbauend auf diesem organisatorischen Grundmodell analysiert das Seminar systematisch, inwiefern das Aufkommen generativer KI etablierte Methoden, Rollen, Entscheidungsstrukturen und Dokumentationspraktiken entlang des Produktentwicklungsprozesses verändert oder verändern kann. Im Fokus stehen dabei ausgewählte Phasen und Entscheidungspunkte, etwa in der Planungs-, Entwurfs- und Ausarbeitungsphase. Die Studierenden vergleichen klassische ingenieur-, betriebs- und organisationswissenschaftliche Vorgehensweisen mit KI-gestützten, datenbasierten Methoden.

Research Forum Engineering
Arthur Seibel
⌄
The Research Forum is held as a joint event for all four doctoral programs of the Faculty of Management and Technology, as part of the M&T Conference Days. The individual Research Forums of each program are organized as parallel tracks, allowing participants to move freely between them. This format is intended to encourage attendees to look beyond their own field of expertise by attending presentations from other disciplines.

The official invitations will be sent out shortly via myStudy. The Conference Day will take place on the campus of Leuphana University Lüneburg.

Sustainable Product Design
Arthur Seibel
⌄
Die Teilnehmenden setzen sich mit den Aspekten der Nachhaltigkeit im technischen Umfeld und dazugehörigen Bewertungsmethoden auseinander. Sie erlernen wesentliche auf die Phasen des Produktlebenswegs bezogene Gestaltungregeln für die Produktentwicklung und wenden diese selbstständig zur Optimierung einfacher technischer Produkte an.
