Students from TUM’s "iPraktikum" course offered by the Research Group Applied Education Technologies developed a photo-realistic virtual experience redefining the design review process at BMW. The project exemplifies the potential of university-industry partnerships to drive meaningful innovation.

Studies, Awards |

On July 18, 2025, the Walter Gademann Sponsorship Awards and the Kurt Fischer Award were awarded. They recognize outstanding theses by students in the Professional Profile Electrical and Computer Engineering at the TUM School of Computation, Information and Technology (CIT).

Studies, Awards |

Every year, the mathematics, physics, informatics, and chemistry student council (MPIC) honors lecturers who demonstrate a special commitment to teaching. On July 18, 2025, the awards for the best courses in the subject areas of informatics and mathematics were presented.

News from the School

Research, Awards |

The German Research Foundation (DFG) has accepted Amr Alanwar, Professor of Cyber-Physical Systems, into its prestigious Emmy Noether Program. His research into logical zonotopes enables more efficient calculations in various applications, including digital circuits.

New@CIT |

Digital radars and radar networks are among Benjamin Nuß’s main areas of research. In our “New@CIT” series, the newly appointed professor of Microwave Sensors and Sensor Systems at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) tells us what he is passionate about outside of work.

School |

At the Annual Academic Celebration of the Technical University of Munich (TUM), TUM employees, students, and partners come together to bring the year to a close and honor special achievements. The event will take place on December 4, 2025, in the Audimax at the TUM main campus. Register now!

Research, Awards |

As quantum computers grow from theory into reality, so does the risk of software bugs. A team of researchers from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has won a Best Paper Award for developing an innovative method to automatically find and fix these bugs.

Research, Awards |

Researchers from the TUM School of Computation, Information and Technology from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) received three awards at the VLDB (Very Large Data Bases) 2025 conference in London.

News from Research

Research, Awards |

Niki Kilbertus, professor at the TUM School of Computation, Information and Technology and Helmholtz AI group leader, has received an ERC Starting Grant for the project DYNAMICAUS. It focuses on advancing the understanding of cause-and-effect relationships in complex dynamical systems.

Research |

Martin Schulz, Professor of Computer Architecture and Parallel Systems at the TUM School of Computation, Information and Technology, and his research team have developed a tool that integrates quantum computers into existing supercomputers and enables them to interact seamlessly.

Research |

For more realistic simulations of wave movements, professor Nils Thuerey and his team have developed a two-phase model. Along with water, the method also takes into account the interaction with air. This authentic simulation could also help to protect coastal regions against extreme weather events.

Research |

When he was a child, Niki Kilbertus wanted to become a theoretical physicist. Today, he is Professor of Ethics in Systems Design and Machine Learning at the TUM School of Computation, Information and Technology and builds algorithms that help uncover cause and effect.

Research |

Artificial intelligence can speed up diagnoses and ease everyday clinical work. Professor Daniel Rückert and his team at the Technical University of Munich are developing safe AI solutions for assistance systems in medicine.
