Hi, I'm Julian đź‘‹

I study at the intersection of economics and information systems, with a strong focus on artificial intelligence and data-driven systems. My recent work has increasingly focused on AI agents, alongside a broader interest in developing ideas and systems through hands-on prototyping. I enjoy learning by building, collaborating with others, and continuously pushing my understanding forward.

Bachelor Thesis

Title: Leveraging Agentic AI in Higher Education: An eDSR Approach for Designing a Learning Support System

May 2025 | University of Hohenheim

Generative artificial intelligence has rapidly become part of academic learning processes. However, its effective use remains limited due to technical constraints of general-purpose models, challenges in handling complex tasks, and a lack of accessible, student-centered systems. This thesis investigates how an agent-based, modular system can improve learning efficiency and quality in higher education using an echeloned Design Science Research approach. The prototype includes components for summarization, retrieval-based question answering, automated question generation, and adaptive assessment with feedback.

Keywords: Generative AI, Learning Support, Higher Education, Design Science, Agent-based Systems
