In recent years Python has become more and more popular. According to the Tiobe Index it is about to overtake Java and to be the number two in the list of the most important programming language in the world. In the fields of numerical programming and Machine Learning, Python is the leader. It is not just easier to learn than other languages but programs in Python can also be faster written and are characterized by their easy readability. One of the reasons for this are the user-friendly data structures and the easy to grasp syntax.

The focus of this online workshop is on planning tools for successful project management. All participants apply their experience and knowledge in practical exercises.

The following elements of project management are discussed in more detail:

• Clarification of the contract
• Objective definition (expected results, process goals)
• Stakeholder analysis
• Phase model -> work breakdown structure (WBS) -> schedule
• Milestone plan
• Basics of risk management

The transfer and entrepreneurship office (TEO) supports scientists and students in realizing innovation projects as well as knowledge- and technology-based start-ups. In addition, the TEO is the first point of contact for industrial partners and companies interested in scientific expertise, consulting services, research and development cooperations and the commercial use of technologies and intellectual property from the MLU.
