===== Participation in Carolo Cup ==== The Student-team "GalaXIs", sponsored by the Chair of Computer Science 11, participates annually in the Carolo-Cup competition organized by TU Braunschweig for autonomic moving model cars.\\ \\ The aim of this competition is to allow students an intensive analysis of interdisciplinary problem statements dealing with electrical engineering, mechanical engineering and computer science at an early stage. Experiences in the practical implementation of student knowledge combined with team work, project and time management optimize their requirements for starting a professional career.\\ \\ Every concept will be compared and assessed with concepts of the other participating teams. Hereto, the teams have to contest a variety of static and dynamic disciplines. |} === Links for further information === (in German only) * [[http://www.carolo-cup.de/|Homepage des Veranstalters]] * [[http://galaxis.rwth-aachen.de/|Homepage des Teams GalaXIs]] === Carolo Cup 2011 === On February 8th, 2011, the team of Aachen, GalaXIs, achieved the 2nd place in this year's Carolo-Cup in Braunschweig.
