About the OMILAB Node
The OMiLAB Node at the South Westphalia University of Applied Sciences was created to enhance research and practice related to participation-oriented transformational processes of organisations. In the midst of the Industrial Region South Westphalia, this node provides an opportunity for enterprises and students alike to utilize co-creative conceptual modelling to explore pathways and solutions creating local, organisational and regional resilience and enabling change.
By linking technological development with social, organisational and sustainability perspectives, OMiLAB@FH-SWF fosters responsible innovation and change. We apply the domain specific conceptual modelling approach to trigger change-enabling for diverse stakeholders in sociotechnical transformation. OMiLAB@FH-SWF has a strong background in human-robot and human-autonomy teaming to ensure collaboration for human-centred, inclusive and sustainable work design.
