Our Courses on AI Skills
From Zero to Hero: Language Models and AI Tools on the Göttingen Campus
In this hands-on session, you’ll learn the basics of large language models (LLMs) and discover which AI tools are available at the University of Göttingen – with a practical focus and the chance to try them out straight away. We’ll look at how prompts work, what parameters such as ‘temperature’ are all about, and take a look beyond the usual boundaries at ‘Vibe Coding’ – intuitive programming with AI support.
The session is aimed at students and staff from all disciplines. No prior knowledge is required – just curiosity and a laptop.
By the end, you’ll take away
- A solid basic understanding of LLMs.
- Practical experience with the university’s AI tools.
- An initial insight into Vibe Coding.
- Guaranteed to give you a whole new definition of the term ‘temperature’.

How do I tell my AI? The basics of prompting for study and research
Artificial intelligence (AI) can help students during their studies to access information, develop ideas and edit texts. The clearer and more appropriate the prompt is, the easier it is to control the results and put them to further use.
What to expect
- You’ll receive an accessible introduction to prompting and its importance for achieving good AI results.
- We’ll show you what makes a good prompt.
- You’ll learn how to structure prompts methodically and tailor them specifically to a task.
By the end, you’ll take away a practical toolkit that will enable you to formulate prompts more clearly, use them more effectively and achieve better AI results.
