The student talk evenings of the VFF are a series of lectures in which VFF members report to students of the TU Bergakademie Freiberg on special research topics or experiences from their everyday professional life under the motto "Old hands discuss with young foxes". Therefore, students, company representatives, but also citizens of the city of Freiberg are addressed. The discussion evenings take place in cooperation with the "Klubhaus alte Mensa e.V.". Participation is free and all guests receive a free drink.
