Academic content
This Summer School programme commences by introducing the fundamentals of cyber-physical systems, network infrastructure, innovative sensor systems, and data integration. This foundation aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of data acquisition in an industrial context. Additionally, participants will receive training in programming languages and tools that are commonly used in industrial AI, such as Python, scikit-learn, and TensorFlow (Keras). Thereby, the programme provides an understanding of key AI concepts like machine learning, deep learning, reinforcement learning, and time series processing in the context of current and future industrial requirements.

At these events, you can get to know the other participants, our beautiful city of Aachen, and the places in the surrounding area. Then during the last days of your stay, you will take a final exam to earn your certificate.
At the weekends and after the farewell event, you can take advantage of the short travel distances and discover more of Germany and Europe on your own or with your new friends!

Advantages of RWTH Aachen University:
The student city of Aachen is a vibrant and historic place located at the border tripoint of Germany, Belgium, and the Netherlands. Aachen was a favoured residence of Charlemagne. After the departure of the Romans from this region, Charlemagne finally managed to forge the lion’s share of Europe into something that resembled an administrative unity, with Aachen as the beating heart of the empire. The "Rathaus" (city hall) and "Dom" (cathedral) bear witness to this earliest Carolingian building history. During your time in Aachen, you have the opportunity to discover the city, its history, and its most important sights. Moreover, you will experience student life at one of Europe’s leading technical universities and become part of the international student community. There is no better place to encounter European culture while challenging yourself in our programmes.
