Computer Simulation in Science and Education

Be it educational bodies or research institutes: ESI ITI is your partner for virtual modeling and interactive simulation. Benefit from a strong package consisting of simulation software, engineering knowledge and a broad network of industrial partners.

Science and education: challenges and trends

Research, education, commissioned projects: In order to withstand the global competition for research funding, skilled employees and full auditoriums, state-of-the-art technology and systemic knowledge of the underlying physical principles are essential. Computer simulations make the technical correlations more obvious and help you find innovative solutions to complex scientific questions.

Trends

Requirements for researchers and research associates:

  • Developing and verifying new solution approaches for technical challenges
  • Improving conventional technologies and research methods
  • Raising funds in a competitive research landscape
  • Comparing pros and cons of technological alternatives
  • Conducting integrated research across the boundaries of individual disciplines
  • Developing comprehensive solution concepts with appropriate technologies
  • Combining the software in use into a closed toolchain
  • Preparing scientific results for a specialized audience and the public in a presentable way

Requirements for employees in education:

  • Teaching technical and physical correlations
  • Preparing students for the labor market by teaching established methods, techniques and the use of appropriate tools
  • Creating comprehensible learning material
  • Supervising a great number of term papers and theses
  • Ensuring a high quality level in education and scientific research
