"Data-Driven & Smart Technologies", "Smart Mobility & Building" and "Resources and Sustainability" are the new research focus areas at Bochum University of Applied Sciences. In these three areas, the aim is to find innovative solutions to current challenges, promote interdisciplinary research and develop innovations.
In the area of "Data-Driven & Smart Technologies", the focus is on the application of artificial intelligence (AI) and data science in various areas such as smart cities and education. Projects such as "Digital Mentoring", "Traiber.NRW" and "ProComE - Analysis of combined hydrological and meteorological extreme events" are part of this initiative. The projects are researching how AI can improve studies and teaching, support the automotive supply industry in the Bergisch region and investigate extreme weather events.
The "Smart Mobility & Building" focus area concentrates on the development of sustainable transport systems and modern building infrastructures, with projects such as "MoNal - Sustainable mobility over the life cycle" and "SEGuRo - SEcure Grids for Redispatch 2.0". In "MoNal", a rental system for e-mopeds and cargo bikes is being tested in Ghana. SEGuRo" is about investigating a secure and digital electricity grid in a real laboratory in the city of Herne. The third research focus, "Resources and Sustainability", deals with the sustainable use of resources, particularly in the areas of energy and water. Projects such as "GH2GH - Green Hydrogen for Decentralized Energy Systems in Sub-Saharan Africa" and "GiVEn - Fair Interregional Distribution of Costs and Benefits of the Energy Transition" should be highlighted here.sources and further information: hochschule-bochum.de/idw-online.de
