During my doctoral studies at LMU Munich, I served as a Teaching Assistant and took on significant organizational responsibilities for the undergraduate lecture "Rechnerarchitektur" (Computer Architecture). This foundational course, led by Prof. Dr. Linnhoff-Popien, catered to approximately 600 students each semester.
My primary responsibilities focused on managing the tutorial component and supporting the overall lecture delivery:
- Tutorial Coordination: Managed a team of 10-12 student tutors, including recruitment, training, task assignment, and ensuring equitable workload distribution to effectively support the large student cohort.
- Curriculum Support: Designed weekly exercise sheets, including theoretical problems and practical programming tasks (e.g., assembly language), aligned with the lecture content. Coordinated the grading process across the tutor team.
- Examination Management: Contributed to the design, organization, and supervision of the final written examinations, ensuring smooth execution for a large number of participants.
The course provided students with a comprehensive introduction to the fundamental principles of computer science and architecture.
