Cobol-Kurs, 28.09. - 02.10.2020
Demnächst wird vom 28.09.2020 bis 02.10.2020, jeweils 9-17 Uhr, ein Cobol-Kurs angeboten. Der Kurs findet wahlweise im Leo 18 oder online statt, was im Vorfeld mit allen interessierten abgestimmt wird.
Interessent*innen melden sich bitte so bald wie möglich bei
anja.ebbigmann@wi.uni-muenster.de
oder schreiben sich direkt in den Learnweb-Kurs ein:
Die Plätze sind begrenzt und werden an diejenigen vergeben, die sich zuerst anmelden. Die Teilnahme ist kostenlos. Am Ende wird eine Teilnahmebescheinigung ausgestellt. Der Kurs wird von zwei ausgewiesenen Cobol-Experten gehalten.
Cobol ist eine der ersten Programmiersprachen, die aber in der Finanzindustrie immer noch weit verbreitet ist. In der Praxis gehen die Cobol-Programmierer in den kommenden Jahren in den Ruhestand, wodurch auf dem Arbeitsmarkt eine starke Nachfrage nach Berufseinsteiger*innen mit Cobol-Kenntnissen besteht (die auch zu überdurchschnittlichen Gehältern führt). Cobol weist eine starke Ähnlichkeit zu der SAP-Programmiersprache ABAP auf.
Der Kurs eignet sich auch für Teilnehmer*innen, die ihre Programmiererfahrungen erweitern möchten. Aufgrund der intensiven Betreuung in Kleingruppen-Atmosphäre sind hier Fortschritte besonders leicht möglich.

Cityvolt – Identification of Locations for Mobile Fast Chargers of Uniper
A rapid improvement of the existing charging infrastructure is necessary for the shift towards electromobility. Unfortunately, in particular, fast-charging stations have not been widely used in Germany until now. The energy infrastructure is not designed to provide the required amount of electricity in many places. This is where "E-Mobility Solutions by Uniper" comes into play: The system is based on mobile fast chargers that can be set up flexibly, also in inner-city areas if required.
