QuanTUK
As part of the QuanTUK project, an innovative, part-time Master's degree course has been developed to meet the increasing demand for qualified specialists in the field of quantum technologies. The three-year project was funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) with 2.3 million euros.
An interdisciplinary team of experts from the departments of physics, mathematics, electrical engineering and information technology as well as computer science at RPTU and in close cooperation with the Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Mathematics (ITWM), the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI) and the Distance and Independent Studies Center (DISC) have developed distance learning content at the highest scientific level. These have been specifically tailored to the heterogeneous professional and educational requirements of prospective students. Innovative learning materials were created and evaluated using modern didactic approaches. The result is a future-proof study concept that gives professionals access to cutting-edge content in the field of quantum technologies - flexible, scientifically sound and interdisciplinary.

Classroom Response Systems
We believe that the quality of university education starts already in school. Therefore, we are engaged into improving and didactically evaluating physics teacher‘s education. Particularly, we focus on the question how digital media can improve concept understanding in physics and how digital classroom response systems can help to identify misconceptions.
