A day on campus The Sneak Peek TU in pictures

What is it like to study at TU Braunschweig? On 22 June, around 180 high school graduates and prospective students spent a day trying out what life as a TU student might be like. After an official welcome, they got to know campus life in hands-on workshops, lectures and networking opportunities. We have summarised the highlights of the first Sneak Peek at TU Braunschweig in a picture gallery.

There was a lot of interest. Even before the official start at 9 am, a long queue formed at the registration desk. A total of around 180 interested people took part in the Sneak Peek. Photo credit: Ahmed Nassef/TU Braunschweig

"Which way to the mechanical engineering workshops?" The student scouts were able to answer these and other questions. Photo credit: Ahmed Nassef/TU Braunschweig

In the participatory workshops, the emphasis was on "participating". Those interested were able to try out how to use a pipette, microscope and Petri dish in the laboratories. Photo credit: Ahmed Nassef/TU Braunschweig

Participants learned how architectural models are created in the workshop "Konzeptioneller Entwurf im Modell" (Conceptual design in models). Photo credit: Ahmed Nassef/TU Braunschweig

Order is half the battle—especially when it comes to computer science. In the lecture "Sortieren geht über Probieren" (Sorting over trying), Prof. Sándor Fekete gave insights into the computer science programme. Photo credit: Ahmed Nassef/TU Braunschweig

With many exciting insights into student life at TU Braunschweig, the prospective students went home after the Sneak Peek TU and will hopefully return as enthusiastic first-year students in the next winter semester. Photo credit: Ahmed Nassef/TU Braunschweig
