Teaching

In the fall term 2023, we are teaching the following courses:

• Human-Computer Interaction (undergrad level) course
• Mixed Reality (master's level) course

Available projects for ETH students

Our projects stretch across the areas of Computer Science (INFK) Electrical Engineering (ITET) Mechanical Engineering (MAVT) Health Sciences (HEST) Robotics, Systems and Control (RSC).

Please apply through SiROP with your documents. If you have any questions, please contact the listed team member(s) directly. For all general inquiries about bachelor's and master's theses, please email Max Moebus. Email addresses are firstname.lastname@inf.ethz.ch.
