Sabina Jeschke (born 27 July 1968 in Kungälv, Sweden) is a German university professor for Information Sciences in Mechanical Engineering at the RWTH Aachen University. She is also the director of the Institute Cluster IMA/ZLW & IfU.[1] Since 2011 she is the vice dean of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at the RWTH Aachen University.[2]

Life and Work

Sabina Jeschke studied Physics and Computer Sciences at the Technische Universität Berlin, Germany.[3] She completed her student research project during a research stay at the NASA Ames Research Center Moffett Field, California, USA under the direction of William (Bill) Borucki.[4] During her doctoral studies she worked as a scientific researcher at the Institut für Mathematik at the Technische Universität Berlin and as an assistant professor/instructor at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, USA.

In 2004 she obtained her doctorate degree (Dr. rer. nat.) with honors. After two years, Sabina Jeschke became a junior professor for New Media in Mathematics and Natural Sciences at the Technische Universität Berlin. As from 2007 she held a full professorship at the Institute for IT Service Technologies (IITS) and simultaneously became the director of the Central Information Technology Services (IT-Center) (RUS) at the University of Stuttgart, Germany.[5] Additionally she was a visiting professor and head of the former Center for Multimedia in Teaching and Research (MuLF) now innoCampus at the Technische Universität Berlin.[6] In 2009 she followed the call of the RWTH Aachen University and became a professor and the director of the Institute Cluster IMA/ZLW & IfU[7] at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering.[8] Until 2010 she additionally functioned as a visiting professor with scientific direction of research projects at the Institut für Technische Optik (ITO) of the University of Stuttgart, Germany.[9]

Some of the main areas of her research are complex IT-systems (e.g. cloud computing, Internet of Things, green IT & ET, semantic web services), robotics and automation (e.g. heterogeneous and cooperative robotics, cooperative agents, web services for robotics), traffic and mobility (autonomous and semi-autonomous traffic systems, international logistics, car2car & car2X models) and virtual worlds for research alliances (e.g. virtual and remote laboratories, intelligent assistants, semantic coding of specialised information).[10]

Sabina Jeschke is vice dean of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering of the RWTH Aachen University[11] since October 2011. In May 2015 she became a member of the supervisory board of the Körber AG and in April 2012 chairwoman of the board of management of the Association of German Engineers Aachen (VDI).[12] Since 2011 she is also a senior member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers IEEE. In May 2013 she was awarded the title Fellow of the RWTH Aachen University.[13] In July 2014, the Gesellschaft für Informatik (GI) honoured her with their award Deutschlands digitale Köpfe (Germany's digital heads).[14] In September 2015 she was awarded the Nikola-Tesla Chain by the International Society of Engineering Pedagogy (IGIP) for her outstanding achievements in the field of engineering pedagogy.
