Principles

Open access

All fundamental contents are open access to promote the efficient use of data and models whenever, where ever and whoever you are.

The contents of this website explain open access software and with hints about how to collaborate with commercial codes (as used for example in engineering offices) in the sense of good-to-know information. Such software is explained in the classes upon students’ needs and requests.

The classes target an international and interdisciplinary audience to foster work in versatile teams, because diversity is not only an enrichment, but also crucial for successful economic, socio-political, and scientific collaboration. Cultural diversity comes along with different solution strategies, which together lead to robust and elaborate approaches. This is why the classes supported on with this website target all cultures and ethnic groups with their manifold backgrounds, ages, and beliefs.
