Prof. Dr. Klaus Lang from Neu-Ulm University of Applied Sciences spent two weeks at the School of Computer Science at Taylor's University in Kuala Lumpur. The goal: to explore new avenues for joint projects in teaching, research, and practice in the field of artificial intelligence.

The rapid development of AI makes it clear that universities must collaborate across borders. Asia in particular is considered a driver of innovation, characterized by high speed and a strong practical orientation. This is precisely where Prof. Dr. Klaus Lang's guest visit came in.

During his stay, he gave several guest lectures on current AI topics, participated in faculty council meetings, and attended corporate events. He gained valuable insights into teaching methods, academic structures, and successful collaborations between universities and industry. An important focus of the visit was to find out how Asian universities are strategically integrating generative AI tools into their study programs.

The intensive exchange resulted in clear prospects for future projects. Sayan Kumar Ray, Dean of the School of Computer Science, emphasizes: “Prof. Dr. Klaus Lang's visit was extremely enriching for our faculty. We very much hope to further intensify this collaboration and establish long-term cooperation in the field of AI.” Prof. Dr. Klaus Lang also draws a positive conclusion: “I am impressed by how consistently AI is integrated into teaching and research. The motivation of the students and the practical orientation are exceptional.”

Cross-border cooperation is crucial in order to take advantage of the speed of innovation in the field of AI. HNU benefits from new ideas for research, teaching, and practical application.
