What it is about

You will learn how Process Mining works: methods to discover, monitor, and improve real business processes from event logs. In the end you will know the basics of the formal representation of processes, the three main perspectives Discovery, Conformance and Enhancement, as well as typical workflows of Process-Mining projects and current applications in industry and research.

What you will be able to do

  • Explain principles and application areas of Process Mining
  • Understand the structure of Event Logs
  • Apply fundamental Process-Mining algorithms for Discovery, Conformance and Enhancement
  • Assess the strengths and limitations of these algorithms
  • Use different tools/libraries and apply them to Event Logs
  • Explain the sequence and phases of a Process-Mining project
  • Know current research topics in Process Mining

What the module consists of

  • LectureConveying the theoretical foundations and exemplary illustration
  • ExerciseDeepening and application of concepts; practical handling with tools and real data

Teaching method

  • In-person lectureIntroduction to theory and algorithms
  • Flipped‑Classroom VideosOptional review and preparation for exercises
