Abstract
The Informatics Institute (IvI) strives for a shared commitment to its educational ambitions. Based on the available documentation, we derive the following educational ambitions for the IvI:
AMBITION A : Diversity and student quality
The IvI programmes welcome students with different backgrounds, interests,
ambitions and capacities and promote diversity in developing students who are
versatile, independent, critical and excellent computational thinkers.
AMBITION B : Research intensive education
IvI uses research-intensive education to help develop students to become
professionals and/or researchers with inquisitive scientific minds who are able
to generate new solutions and identify new challenges.
AMBITION C : High quality scientific content
IvI recognises that excellent teaching is informed by cutting-edge research. The
IvI programmes should provide an overview of their respective fields as well as
the most recent developments.
AMBITION D : High quality teaching
IvI actively supports and encourages high-quality teaching and teachers that are
able to not only apply proven but also to develop new didactic concepts and
methods.
