AI Campus Hub NRW
The FernUniversität in Hagen, in cooperation with the AI Campus, is responsible for a regional hub for North Rhine-Westphalia, serving as a central point of contact and networking centre on the subject of artificial intelligence and the reuse of the AI Campus’s educational resources at universities. The AI Campus Hub NRW strengthens North Rhine-Westphalia’s position as a centre for higher education and technology through digital learning programmes and community activities. It works closely with the KI:Expertisezentrum.nrw and, amongst other things, provides advisory services as part of the BMFTR project ‘Strengthening AI Competences at Universities’.
North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany's most populous state, is home to a dense network of universities, educational institutions, businesses, and medical organisations. Our goal is to bring these diverse stakeholders together - each with their own interests and questions about AI – to foster exchange and collaboration. In this process, we identify training and continuing education needs and explore how the AI Campus’s learning opportunities can support them.
Are you looking to develop AI guidelines at your university or integrate AI into your curricula? Do you work in HR and want to strengthen your employees’ AI and data skills? Have you already found suitable offers or are there still important aspects missing? Then join the AI Campus Hub NRW. We look forward to your inquiries about collaboration at ki-campus-hub-nrw@fernuni-hagen.de.

My Master of Medical Education degree from 2006 to 2008 was the starting point for a series of innovations in teaching, which I have researched intensively with my team. The focus of my work is on the acquisition of clinical reasoning skills, digital teaching/learning formats, the impact of examinations on learning behaviour and processes, and teaching evaluation. As a clinician, I know the challenges that teachers face at a maximum care hospital. That is why we develop our teaching concepts in close consultation with the teaching staff.
