Materials, materials technologies
School Lab Materials
A modern world needs modern materials - efficient, intelligent and ecologically compatible. They would be inconceivable without innovative materials and technologies: Mobile phones, vehicles, computers - or even our formula racing car, which students built during their studies in Freiberg!
In the School Lab "Science meets School - Materials and Technologies in Freiberg", pupils become "materials detectives". Here they can explore the world of materials, their production and important material properties. Experiments in real research laboratories illustrate how decisive the microstructure of a material is for its properties, for example. Modern research equipment such as a scanning electron microscope is available for this purpose.
Teachers will find interesting opportunities to supplement and enhance their teaching, especially in maths and science subjects, as well as attractive offers for individual further training.
2026 Student Competition “Safety Net Contest – Catch the Splash”
Nets are among the most fascinating inventions in human history. They were used in early cultures to catch fish, protect against falls, transport goods, and as tools in agriculture and crafts. At their core, they are always based on the same, unassuming idea: individual, weak threads are combined to form a resilient structure. Flexibility creates stability, and lightness creates a load-bearing net.
With the Safety Net Contest – Catch the Splash, we would like to invite you to experience this ancient craftsmanship and modern engineering for yourself. The aim is to use creativity, skill, and your own choice of materials to create a net that combines stability and elasticity in equal measure.
Girls' Day at TUBAF
Girls' Day is also a great opportunity to gain an insight into various departments at TUBAF.
