Materials Week: High-tech Metals for the World of Tomorrow

Materials Week: High-tech Metals for the World of Tomorrow

Why are bridges made of steel? What does the lithium in lithium-ion batteries do? How is it possible for a display to recognise my finger?

We get to the bottom of these questions. Sounds exciting to you?

If you are interested in maths, science and technology and would like to take a look into the world of modern materials, then you've come to the right place. Become a materials detective and discover what holds materials together at their core. Get to the bottom of the secrets of modern materials with state-of-the-art research equipment in a real research laboratory! Find out in our escape room why the scientists working on our brand-new topics have disappeared. And let yourself be drawn into our enthusiasm for high-tech metals. Because a modern world needs modern materials - efficient, intelligent and ecologically compatible. And we want to use these metals to shape the world of tomorrow.

In addition to exciting experiments, lectures and excursions to companies in the region, the programme also includes a wide range of opportunities to make contact with students and scientists. You will not only learn how high-tech metals contribute to a better future, but also how YOU can play a part in this through a degree programme and an entire professional field.

Study programmes: Foundry Technology, Materials Science and Technology, Nanotechnology
