Prof. Dr. Tilman Michaeli
Academic Career and Research Areas
In his work in the field of computing education, Prof. Tilman Michaeli (*1992) not only aims at explaining the digital world and its phenomena but also wants to enable everyone to actively and creatively shape this world. To this end, he combines empirical and design-oriented research with a strong focus on teaching practice. His main research areas are debugging in K12 education, Data and AI Literacy, collaborative programming projects, digital competencies for teachers of all disciplines, and quantum computing as a topic of computing education.
Before joining TUM, Tilman Michaeli studied computer science for the teaching profession in secondary education at Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nürnberg until 2017. Afterwards, he worked as a research assistant at the Professorships for Computing Education in Erlangen and at Free University of Berlin in the group of Prof. Dr. Ralf Romeike, where he finished his PhD in 2020. In 2021, he took over the Professorship for Computing Education at the TUM School of Social Sciences and Technology in Munich.
