PD Dr. Jannis Epting

Teaching Bachelor/Master

Since 2012 I have an appointment as lecturer at the University of Basel. Already since 2003, during my appointment as scientific assistant as well as during my PhD and my PostDoc until 2013, I assisted in numerous lectures and exercises. All my teaching assignments are in some way related to projects and research that AUG carries out for cantonal and national authorities and therefore always have a strong connection to "real world" problems. I think this is important to prepare young scientists for their future working environment. In my lectures, students are introduced to concepts and methods that they can then apply in their BSc, MSc or PhD work. While my former teaching activities were mainly focused on hydrogeological and geotechnical issues, I am currently adapting them more to topics of urban water management and the sustainable use of water resources.
