About the person
Short vita
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Rettkowski studied microtechnology at the Westphalian University of Applied Sciences and electrical engineering & information technology at the Ruhr University Bochum. He successfully completed his doctorate at the TU Dresden. During his doctorate, he conducted research on heterogeneous and partially reconfigurable systems-on-chip for various fields of application, such as digital image processing or machine learning. After completing his doctorate, Prof. Dr.-Ing. Rettkowski worked for Volkswagen Infotainment GmbH in Bochum. There he was involved in the development and integration of the VW.os. Prof. Dr.-Ing. Rettkowski has been appointed to the Department of Electronics at Dortmund University of Applied Sciences and Arts in the Department of Electrical Engineering in 2022.
