After studying mathematics (diploma in 1989) with a minor in computer science and a doctorate in computer science (graduated in 1993) at Clausthal University of Technology, I moved to the University of Oldenburg in 1994 to join what was then the Department of Computer Science. In teaching and research, I joined the Department of Programming Languages and Systems. Until the founding of the Faculty of Computer Science, Economics and Law, I also took on the role of assistant to the dean and was responsible for all organizational matters in the department. In spring 2002, I spent a semester as a visiting professor at the State University of West Georgia (GA, USA) and also taught courses there. After the retirement of Prof. Sonnenschein on 1.9.2020, I moved from my “old” Department of Environmental Informatics to the Department of Digitalized Energy Systems under the direction of Prof. Nieße, who succeeded Mr. Sonnenschein.
