BioNanoTec week from 17.07. to 21.07.2023
Study programs: Applied natural science
The technical program consists of experiments offered at institutes of physics and life sciences during the student university. During the BioNanoTec week, you will experience first-hand the possibilities of modern electronics and biotechnology in the laboratories of the TU Bergakademie Freiberg at the Faculty of Chemistry, Physics and Biosciences.
You will get to know microorganisms as small production plants for interesting molecules and use biomolecules to extract strategic elements such as rare earths. These are used in pure form in today's electronics. You will make and measure your own small test chip in a modern clean room lab. You will penetrate into the secrets of electrons and light waves, i.e. you will be guided from small light experiments (light decomposition, laser diffraction and holography) to the construction of a laser spectrometer. Thus, in contact with the scientists, you will directly experience what it means to work together in interdisciplinary research teams. During these days, we will cover a wide range of topics, from biotechnological applications to microelectronic components.
During the Student University there will be a barbecue evening where participants will have the opportunity to casually talk to students and PhD students as well as staff members, ask questions and get information.
Computer Science Days from 14.08. to 17.08.2023
Study programs: Applied Computer Science, Robotics
Robots have become an indispensable part of our daily lives. In various forms, they support us in daily tasks and, depending on the field of application, perform predefined motion sequences or take over partial tasks completely independently. During the computer science week you will get an overview of the history and current developments in this field. In addition, you can get a taste of the control and navigation of moving robots, for example, in small research-related projects. Other highlights of the week are the presentation of our new mining robots and an abduction into the virtual world.

Chemistry Student College from 12.09. to 15.09.2023
Study programs: Chemistry
All chemistry institutes will open their laboratories for the chemistry student program and invite you to experiment.
To start with, an experimental lecture awaits you, after which you will receive a lot of important information about studying chemistry from the Dean of Studies. Afterwards, you will go on a discovery tour through the modern laboratories. You will walk through all the institutes, conduct a variety of experiments and discover the exciting fields of work and working methods of the various chemical disciplines in a practical way.
In addition to the technical program, other highlights await you, such as a visit to the "Reiche Zeche" research and training mine and a guided tour of the "terra mineralia" mineral collection.
At the end of the school college there will be a barbecue evening, where you will have the opportunity to talk to scientists in a relaxed atmosphere, ask questions and get information.
