In addition to a wide range of practice-oriented Bachelor's and Master's theses, the group also offers various courses (lectures, seminars and practical courses) as part of the training of students at the Department of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology. These include, in particular, courses on the topics of lightning and surge protection as well as transient processes in electrical systems.
