Karlshochschule International University proudly welcomes Professor Dr.-Ing. <\/strong>Sasanka Potluri<\/strong><\/a> as the new Professor of General Computer Science and Medical Informatics<\/strong> and Head of the Computer Science (B.Sc.) program<\/strong>, which will be launched through the university\u2019s new Chemnitz branch<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With more than a decade of international experience in artificial intelligence, medical informatics, and intelligent systems<\/strong>, Prof. Potluri brings both academic excellence and practical innovation to Karlshochschule\u2019s expanding portfolio in STEM domain. His career has bridged the gap between applied research and real-world impact \u2014 from leading the BMBF (BMFTR)-funded KI-LoV research group<\/strong> on AI-based healthcare logistics at Jena University Hospital to developing Machine Learning systems for Industrial Cybersecurity<\/strong> during his doctoral research at the Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Computer Science, done differently<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Computer Science (B.Sc.) program<\/strong> at Karlshochschule (see more at karlshochschule.de\/computer-science<\/a>) stands out through its interdisciplinary<\/strong>, hands-on<\/strong>, and ethical<\/strong> approach to current era\u2019s digital trends. Students don\u2019t just learn to code \u2014 they learn to think critically about technology\u2019s role in society, to apply AI responsibly, and to collaborate across disciplines such as management, psychology, and healthcare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe want our students to graduate not only as skilled programmers but as digital citizens \u2014 able to use AI and data responsibly, creatively, and with a sense of purpose,\u201d says Potluri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under Professor Potluri\u2019s leadership, the new programme<\/strong>\u00a0will focus on AI-driven applications in medicine, industry, and digital transformation<\/strong>, offering close connections to regional research partners and technology companies. Courses such as Medical Informatics, Machine Learning<\/em>, Neural Networks and Deep Learning<\/em>, IT Security<\/em>, and Distributed Systems<\/em>\u00a0will prepare students to become the next generation of innovators in both academia and industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bridging Research, Teaching, and Society<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prof. Potluri\u2019s teaching philosophy emphasizes active, project-based learning<\/strong>, encouraging students to engage with real-world problems and develop data-driven solutions. His research continues to explore Healthcare IT<\/strong>, wearable technologies<\/strong>, and explainable AI<\/strong> \u2014 fostering collaboration between computer science, healthcare, and engineering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cInformatics today is about shaping a responsible digital future,\u201d says Prof. Potluri. \u201cAt Karlshochschule, we aim to connect artificial intelligence, data science, and human-centered design to tackle real challenges in healthcare, sustainability, and society.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Karlshochschule congratulates Prof. Dr.-Ing. Sasanka Potluri<\/strong> on his new appointment and looks forward to the enrichment of teaching, research and transfer activities through computer science at the university.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
