Prof. Dr. Thomas Schlegel has been a full professor at Furtwangen University (HFU) since 2022 and is the founding director of the Institute for Intelligent Interactive Ubiquitous Systems (IIIUS), established in 2023. He previously founded and led the Institute for Ubiquitous Mobility Systems at Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences, where he
conducted research and taught in the field of Computer Science and Mobility Systems from 2015 onward. From 2010, he held a Junior Professorship in Software Engineering of Ubiquitous Systems at TU Dresden, leading a 20-person research group in ubiquitous systems and teaching Human-Computer Interaction and
Software Engineering in the Media Computer Science program. Prior to that, he was a postdoctoral researcher and group leader for Interactive Systems at the Visualization and Interactive Systems (VIS) Institute at the University of
Stuttgart. He began his research career at the Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Engineering (IAO), contributing to and managing numerous national and EU research projects. He holds a Software Engineering degree (Univ. of
Stuttgart) and a Ph.D. in Engineering. He has conducted applied research and taught in software technology and interactive and ubiquitous systems, with applications in digitized production, mobility systems/public transport, and
environmental systems. He has acquired over 15 million euros in research funding, has authored more than 150 publications and taught over 100 courses.
