Last week, our President Professor Angela Ittel<\/a> received the Femtec Award in the Leadership category. We warmly congratulate! “I am deeply honored to have received this award, which means a lot to me,”\u00a0 says the President. “A great thank you to all my supporters!”<\/p>\n \u2026 has been sent by the Vice President for Human Resources, Finance and Infrastructure, Dietmar Smyrek, by email to all members of our university. The aim is to reduce energy consumption and thus conserve gas reserves and mitigate cost increases. Please also have a look at the webpage “Saving Energy”<\/a> and send your tips to energiesparen@tu-braunschweig.de<\/a>.<\/p>\n “Opportunities for personal communication are very important for the development of our university,”\u00a0 emphasizes President Professor Angela Ittel. Therefore, after the successful Diversity Day and the festive reception for the staff, the Executive Board invited the professors to a late summer reception<\/a>.<\/p>\n The TU CRA “Infections and Agents” is now called “Engineering for Health \u2013 from Molecules to Processes”. Professor Martin Korte, the new spokesperson of the CRA, about the reboot.<\/p>\n … at the Centre for Digital Innovations Lower Saxony (ZDIN)<\/a>. The aim is to make water management sustainable, resource-conserving and efficient. The state and the Volkswagen Foundation are providing 3.7 million euros for this purpose.<\/p>\n The impacts of floods and droughts can be reduced through appropriate risk management. An international study in which Professor Kai Schr\u00f6ter<\/a> of the Leichtwei\u00df Institute for Hydraulic Engineering and Water Resources was involved has now led to important findings from past extreme events.<\/p>\n After Air Taxis, the NFL Aerospace Forum<\/a> dealt with the topic of transport into space. Experts from research and industry were guests an talked about carrier systems, new fuels, space ports in Europe and air launches.<\/p>\n The foundation \u201cBraunschweigische Stiftung\u201d was able to win Dr Insa Thiele-Eich for two lectures on 23 Sep.<\/a> At 10 am, Thiele-Eich will give a lecture especially for students; at 6 pm, she will talk about her life as an astronaut, full-time scientist, local politician and mother.<\/p>\n Measuring instruments for the “Europa Clipper” mission are calibrated in the unique “Magnetsrode” laboratory<\/a>. Specifically, this involves magnetometers that help to explore the electromagnetic processes inside Jupiter’s moon Europa.<\/p>\n As one of the first students to enrol in the Computational Sciences in Engineering (CSE) degree programme, Christian Kouam<\/a> came to our university in 2000. In his home country Cameroon, he has now founded a university himself and is still closely connected to TU Braunschweig today.<\/p>\n The Institute for Sustainable Urbanism (ISU) welcomes another international guest: Professor Jesus J. Lara<\/a> from the Ohio State University is coming to Braunschweig with a DAAD and a Fulbright scholarship and will be researching the influences of migration movement on sustainable urban planning.<\/p>\n The state of Lower Saxony is funding the “Eduroam off Campus” project of the “Hochschule.digital Niedersachsen” association. The aim is to enable location-independent and flexible studying and working at universities and to make wifi available beyond the traditional university environment. TU Braunschweig is receiving 750,000 euros for this project.<\/p>\n For ten days, students of environmental sciences and physics investigated urban ecosystems in Mexico City<\/a>. The study trip was organised by Dr Liseth P\u00e9rez from the Institute for Geosystems and Bioindication and Professor Matthias B\u00fccker from the Institute for Geophysics and Extraterrestrial Physics.<\/p>\n Digital library, publication server, institutional research data repository: Our publication server has had different names in the more than 20 years of its existence. But they meant the same thing. Now, publications and research data have found their new home on LeoPARD<\/a>.<\/p>\n The ProDiGI funding line<\/a> to support digital international teaching is once again open for applications; the deadline for submissions is 1 November 2022. On 23 September 2022<\/a>, the project team will provide information on all questions regarding the call for proposals and the funding line. This will be followed by the closing event<\/a> of the first funding round, which is open to all university members.<\/p>\n During the annual conference of ProcessNet, a platform for process engineering, chemical engineering and technical chemistry, the ProcessNet Medals were awarded \u2013 for example to Professor Stephan Scholl and Professor Arno Kwade. The medals are awarded for outstanding work in basic research or for application in industrial practice.<\/p>\n A digital bouquet of flowers is given to training coordinator Tim Landherr. The colourful bouquet was presented to him by his former trainees on his departure from TU Braunschweig. They thank him for the very good training to become administrative assistants, the great training coordination and the pleasant training period and wish him all the best for the future!<\/p>\n Our darling of the week is the Agnes Pockels Laboratory. Since 2002, the lab has been arousing interest in science among children and young people of all ages with exciting experiments. On Wednesday, it celebrated its 20th anniversary. Congratulations! More on this in next week’s magazine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Topics: Saving energy + new name + extreme weather + … <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":38,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","class_list":["post-51845","kb_magazin","type-kb_magazin","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","kb_reihe-the-week-at-tu-braunschweig","kb_cat_magazin-campus-life","kb_tags-the-week"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n\u25ba Information on dealing with the energy crisis<\/h3>\n
