Graduation Event
The graduate degree is an event that needs to be celebrated! At the Department of Informatics and Media we have been celebrating with our graduates since 2004 in an annually held "diploma event" in the late summer.
The programme begins with a larger number of oral presentations of the graduates final theses, the so-called defenses before opening the ceremony with a speech from Dean Prof. Dr. Jochen Heinsohn.
Finally the graduates ceremonially receive their certificates. Afterwards we conclude the evening with a champagne reception and a little snack in the lobby of the Informatics and Media Department. We will also display the posters which have been prepared by the graduates for their final theses in the lobby.

Project-oriented Studies
To start off our first-year students of the Bachelor degree programmes Informatics, Applied Informatics and Medical Informatics we designed the project-oriented study. Therefore we have developed the two-part module "Project-oriented Studies / Academic Skills", which pursues the following objectives:
- Social Event: Freshmen get to know each other
- Propaedeutic: Practical introductory for informatics students
- Learning Skills: „learning to learn“ through group processes and self-organisation
- Experimental culture of learning: the project-oriented study is an educational change for the Department of Informatics and Media
In the closing event of the project-oriented study the students will present their work.
Lego League
Once a year the regional competition of the Lego League takes place at the University of Applied Sciences in Brandenburg and is hosted by the Department of Informatics. Focus of last years competition were the wonders of nanotechnology: with "Nano Quest" as the motto.
The teams contructed an independently operating robot with a variety of sensors, motors and LEGO bricks. More information about the event can be found in the detailed dokumentation of the regional competition at the University of Applied Sciences Brandenburg.
