The Practical Seminar "Human-Centered Systems" lets students work on a real-world problem in human-centered systems and develop a running software prototype, closely linked to our research topics. Students receive an individual assignment, coordinate with a supervising researcher, and deliver the prototype together with a short written documentation over a maximum time of six months. Currently offered topics are listed on the Practical Seminars website (https://h-lab.win.kit.edu/thesis.php); proposals fitting to our research topics are also welcome.Learning objectives

• scope a real-world problem and create a feasible seminar proposal;select and apply suitable methods and tools to build and evaluate a running software prototype;
