The course offers insights into independent scientific work by providing a theoretical overview of the social science research process, developing a research design that fits the research question, and completing it with subsequent implementation and evaluation. The course creates a basis for high-quality education and the examination and elaboration of scientific questions.

Within the framework of Education for Sustainable Development, various key competencies are formulated that should enable students to think, act and design in terms of sustainable development. 

With regard to engineering education, this means an intensive reflection of one's own role and responsibility in the context of sustainable development.

In the cooperative study programme with the FH Aachen, an inclusive, equitable and high-quality education is promoted and enables especially first generation students to get a better (university) orientation. Furthermore, courses on socially responsible technology development are anchored in the curriculum. An additional eighth semester offers students at RWTH Aachen University the opportunity to gain experience abroad and practical experience and extra-curricular skills shortly before graduation.

The cooperative nature of the project allows the specific local needs to be jointly addressed in line with requirements. Thus, the implementation of a gender and diversity focal point can directly contribute to a more inclusive and integrative higher education, teaching and learning environment. Through the identification and targeted elimination of gender-specific inequalities and discrimination, the participation of women within universities is actively strengthened.

The activities within the RRI Hub promote a socially responsible and sustainable orientation of research, innovation and teaching. In the spirit of an open innovation ecosystem, a cooperation between science and civil society is facilitated, e.g. by providing the local urban society and students with living lab spaces to meet and experiment.
