The Institute for Industrial Information Technology (abbreviated inIT , English Institute Industrial IT ) is an interdisciplinary research institute of the Technical University of Ostwestfalen-Lippe in Lemgo . Research is carried out in the field of intelligent technical systems at the interface between computer science and automation technology , which can be assigned to the field of Industry 4.0 .

The institute is one of the research facilities in the Centrum Industrial IT (CIIT), a research and development center founded in 2010 on the basis of a public-private partnership on the Innovation Campus Lemgo. There is a close cooperation with Fraunhofer IOSB-INA on the Innovation Campus Lemgo .

Tasks of the institute

research

The use of information and communication technology (ICT) in industry has been the mission of the institute since it was founded . This is intended to inform the automation , for example to enable a continuous networking of the administrative and technical processes of a company. Furthermore, automation technology should become more intelligent through the introduction of processes of self-optimization, self-configuration, self-diagnosis and cognition and better support people in their increasingly complex work. The inIT is one of the research institutions in the BMBF - top cluster "it's OWL - Intelligent Technical Systems OstwestfalenLippe" . More than a third of the third-party funding of the OWL Technical University is provided by the inIT. This means that the inIT professors have significantly higher third-party funding per professorship than the average of their colleagues at German universities.

Teaching

The inIT is part of the electrical engineering and computer engineering department of the TH OWL. This is why the professors at inIT teach in the fields of electrical engineering , computer engineering and data science . Lemgoer Elektrotechnik has been one of the best rated courses in Germany for years and is particularly strong in research. In the 2013/2014 CHE ranking it was one of the three best Bachelor programs in Germany. Another top position was achieved in the 2016/2017 CHE ranking.

The inIT professors are still involved in the international master’s program "Information Technology" and the international Ph.D. Graduate School "Intelligent Systems in Automation Technology".

International Graduate School

In April 2013, the international doctoral college "Intelligent Systems in Automation (ISA)" was founded as a joint scientific institution with the University of Paderborn . In this, scholarship holders are guided to their doctorate in a structured manner by one professor from the inIT and one professor from the University of Paderborn with a topic from the field of intelligent automation. This doctoral college supports the BMBF's top cluster it's OWL .

Professors

The inIT is located in the CENTRUM INDUSTRIAL IT.

The inIT board is currently shaped by nine professors, five of whom founded the institute.

  • Volker Lohweg (head of the institute), working group: Image processing and pattern recognition in automation
  • Carsten Röcker, Working Group: User Experience and Interaction Design
