Promotion

Promote research by POWER Students

The ideal form of promotion

Sponsorship over a semester or year with a (regular) amount provides the basis for offering individual students a reliable foundation for research. The sponsorship commitment can be automatically renewed and terminated at any time to the end of a term.

From experience, it is useful to define a contact for Research Funding (ReF) in your company who coordinates and authorises the promotion of POWER Students, because it is possible to have a decisive influence on topics and results.

Even just to discuss which of the following forms suits you best you should contact us .

Workflow for sponsors

We are currently focusing on the first version of the workflows with a very efficient implementation in the web presence. This integration will be further optimised and automated as needed:

  1. You contact us by e-mail, for which we predefine a text module (e-mail, subject, text).
    Please use the above defined links to deliver the proper subject for automation.
  2. The e-mails are manually / automatically turned into tickets in BCS and actively managed and documented there.
    The #NEW will be replaced by a ticket number #nnnn. For further communication reference to: [Ticket #nnnn].
  3. Tickets are manually / (semi-)automatically turned into appointments, quotations, orders, invoices and direct debits.

The integration into the project and Business Coordination System (BCS) is optimised to the extent that initial e-mails can be omitted while complying with the strictest requirements for data protection and security, and parallel the processing is gradually automated.

These improvements between the web presence and the BCS system are implemented as projects with POWER Students as needed. This is oriented towards the goal of optimising the administrative effort so that the investments by sponsors are predominantly made in research. We see ~ 1 h per month as a good orientation.

In the best case, the students are strongly challenged by a high number of sponsors to be able to manage this goal even with 10, 100 or 1000 requests per semester.

The projects so far have shown that the basic technologies could handle this in a relaxed way.
