Training and information materials on the use of AI systems at the University of Stuttgart

Welcome to the AI learning portal for employees

Dear employees, dear colleagues,

The rapid development of generative AI systems opens up new opportunities for the University of Stuttgart—in administration, research, and teaching. At the same time, it challenges us to make conscious decisions: in handling data, evaluating results, and taking responsibility for our collaborative work.

The mandatory training courses on the learning portal lay the foundation for the safe, responsible, and legally compliant use of AI systems at the University of Stuttgart. They are part of our understanding of digital sovereignty and responsible innovation.

In addition, you will find a diverse and growing range of materials, courses, and tutorials to help you use AI competently, creatively, and thoughtfully in your everyday work. Our goal is to enable you to use these technologies safely, effectively, and in line with our shared values.

Sincerely

Dr.  Simone Rehm
Vice-Rector for Information Technology
University of Stuttgart

University-wide AI Circle (Webex)

Since May 2024, the university-wide AI group has been meeting regularly online via Webex to discuss the sensible and responsible use of generative AI at the University of Stuttgart. Topics include strategy, tools, regulations, training, and ethical issues.

The group is organized by the Vice Rectorate for IT.

If you would like to participate or receive information about upcoming meetings, please send an email to ki@uni-stuttgart.de to be added to the mailing list.
