This lab course is centered around innovation. It covers mobile applications for smart devices, ranging from standalone applications, embedded systems including hardware and sensors to the design of modern interfaces for complex business applications. Students learn and apply software engineering and usability engineering techniques. This includes object oriented modeling and system design as well as the realization of graphical user interfaces, usability testing, continuous integration and continuous delivery. Real industrial partners provided the problem statements and acted as clients. 9 companies participated in the iPraktikum WS 20/21, each with a different problem statement and its own team. More than 100 students delivered these applications using agile techniques and communicating continuously to their clients.

Introduced in 2008 by Prof. Dr. Bernd Brügge, since the Winter Semester of 2020/21 the iPraktikum is held by the Professorship for Digital Health, Prof. Dr. Stephan Jonas.
