The awareness for new work approaches in organizations has also an impact on our educational institutions and their spatial structures. To foster agile, interdisciplinary, and problem-seeking skills among future professionals, there is a need for spaces that are open and adaptable, yet convey the identity and values of the institution and environment. These spaces empower students to explore and engage; they support them in applying knowledge collaboratively and creating responsible solutions. The physical space becomes a guide and motivator, a medium for innovation. With the technological advancements for hybrid realities, for prototyping and testing, we may have now the chance, to turn visions on the future of work from the 1960s into reality. And shape our urban futures. Christos Chantzaras is architect and researcher. He has been working at the interface of organizational development, innovation processes, and physical spaces for over 15 years. After international projects in Europe and Asia, he is researching and teaching at the Technical University of Munich since 2017. He investigates future competencies, new methods of innovation management and the requirements for future of work, for future of education and for sustainable urban spaces. Since 2023, he has been member of the “Community of Practice” for Learning Architectures at the Stifterverbandes für die Deutsche Wissenschaft. In parallel, he has installed together with Tobias Förtsch the TUM Venture Lab for the Built Environment, where he acts as managing director to leverage the innovation potential residing in the research and studies of architecture and civil engineering.

SRM Talks is welcoming this year with their 44th SRMTalk on Jan 18th, with a brand new event, "SRMies Talk Career".

This presentation explores the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the space industry, a trending topic in various industries for years. AI, often accompanied by buzzwords like Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Big data, or Natural Language Processing, is transforming spacecraft operations by analysing spacecraft telemetry data, predicting anomalies, and enabling autonomous operations. While AI offers new horizons, it also faces challenges, including data availability, AI-system verification, reliability, interplay with human decision-making, and in general issues of trust. In this talk, Mrs. Maren Hülsmann, a research associate at the Institute of Space Technology and Space Applications (UniBw M), provides insights into AI’s current status, its ongoing challenges, and future opportunities in the space industry.

Relevante Inhalte, verständliche Sprache und unterhaltsame Präsentation – so bringt TUM@Freising die Wissenschaft in die Stadt.
