Information about the management and advisory board

The Competence Centre for Software Engineering (CC-SE) forms part of the Institute for Applied Research and Economic Cooperation at Regensburg University of Applied Sciences. It is led by Professors Dr Tsakpinis and Dr Herrmann.

The advisory board acts as the CC-SE's steering committee. Each industry partner and the university is represented on the advisory board by one member. The advisory board determines the goals and tasks of the joint project, selects employees, and assigns them to research projects directly related to one of the participating partner companies. This involves taking on sub-projects and supporting research projects to transfer methodological and tool knowledge.

It also defines overarching research projects and provides the necessary resources. The scientific project manager collaborates closely with industry partners to develop project proposals, which are then discussed and approved by the advisory board.
