We Did It Together: Future School Prepares Tomorrow’s Professionals
"Future School": During the summer semester, over 50 students from Anhalt University of Applied Sciences and partner universities in the Netherlands, Lithuania, and Poland took part in the first "Future School".
The concept: Students from various disciplines come together in mixed, international teams—both virtually and on campus—to explore future-oriented topics related to business, agriculture, ecology, health, and sustainability.
This summer, the focus was on applying artificial intelligence throughout the entire food value chain, from producer to consumer.
In the video, Professors Dr. Elena Kashtanova and Dr. Christiane Naumann from Anhalt University explain what makes this new teaching format special.
There will be more "Future Schools" and similar initiatives between Anhalt University and ist international partner universities in the future.
These initiatives are part of the "ONE THRIVE" project: One Network Europe for Transforming Health, Reimagining Innovation, Vision, and Education. The goal is to build European, transdisciplinary networks to provide hands-on training for tomorrow’s professionals.
The project is funded by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) as part of the HAW.International program, with funding from the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology, and Space.
