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.
School competition 2026 "Safety Net Contest - Catch the Splash"
Nets are one of the most fascinating inventions in human history. They were already used in early cultures - for catching fish, as protection against falling, for transport or as an aid in agriculture and crafts. At the heart of it all is the same, inconspicuous idea: individual, weak threads are linked together to form a resilient structure. Flexibility becomes stability, lightness becomes a load-bearing net
With the Safety Net Contest - Catch the Splash, we would like to invite you to experience this ancient craft and modern engineering skill 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.
