ABSTRACT
Digitalization is constantly forcing companies to refine their products, services and business models. To shape this change, companies expect not only knowledge of the technologies from the graduates of the respective study programs, but also comprehensive methodological and social competences. For this purpose, we describe the concept of a project semester in an Enterprise Computing study programme, which imparts the required skills. The task set by a partner in the industry allows the achievement of different goals and integrates the various dimensions. On this basis, we describe the best practices in the areas of project management, knowledge building, administration and dealing with customers and other stakeholders. The description of actually carried out projects shows the application of our concept and allows the reader to transfer the best practices to his own needs. Finally, we point out the advantages for the project participants and outline expansion potential.
