Let me talk to Volker about this and we'll write after that.

I am not sure what you mean.
a) You want to use FET to generate timetables of your department.
b1) You want to use the FET source to simulate a physical issue.
b2) You want to study/research the FET source.

But on the other side it doesn't matter at all. All 3 examples are allowed as long as you care about the GPL.

So, you can use it for this purpose (respecting GNU GPL). I wish you success!
