Editor: Hannah Kre\u00df<\/span><\/p>\n On 23 May 1949, the Basic Law, the foundation of our coexistence in a free and democratic constitutional state, was adopted. We also want to celebrate this anniversary at TU Braunschweig and commemorate our fundamental values together. All TU members are invited to attend a speech by the President, the AStA and the staff representatives on <\/span>23 May at 12 noon on University Square<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0 In this context, the TU Executive Board emphatically endorses a <\/span>\u201cDeclaration for Democracy and Diversity in Germany and Europe\u201d<\/span><\/a> formulated in Braunschweig together with trade unions, employers’ associations, the IHK and the Chambers of Crafts and Trades.<\/span><\/p>\n TU Braunschweig is developing the <\/span>new campus<\/span><\/a> together with OHLF, Ostfalia and Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft. The objectives are research into the circular economy in the automotive industry as well as study, further education and transfer programmes. Prof. Joachim Schachtner (MWK) presented the funding decision on 15 May as part of the international <\/span>\u201c<\/span>Circularity Days<\/span>\u201d<\/span> in Wolfsburg.<\/span><\/p>\n This time an award on an international stage: the <\/span>European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture<\/span><\/a>, EUmies, was accepted by the architects Gustav D\u00fcsing and Max Hacke as well as Torsten Markgr\u00e4fe, Bettina N\u00f6hren and Prof Tatjana Scheider from the TU. With this award, our student house made it into the <\/span>\u201cheute Journal\u201d<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n As the increasing spread of false information, hate speech and agitation on the social media platform <\/span>\u201c<\/span>X<\/span>\u201d<\/span> is not compatible with the values of our university, we have stopped our communication via the official TU Braunschweig profile on <\/span>\u201c<\/span>X<\/span>\u201d<\/span> this week. We are still represented on LinkedIn, Mastodon, Facebook and Instagram and look forward to a respectful and open exchange there.<\/span><\/p>\n TU Braunschweig and the University of Hanover are pooling their microelectronics expertise in the <\/span>\u201cWissenschaftsraum Mikroelektronik\u201d<\/span><\/a> (Microelectronics Science Area). With funding of three million euros from the Volkswagen Foundation and the MWK, they want to jointly develop new collaborative projects and design an international degree programme.<\/span><\/p>\n For a sustainable future, companies are required to implement technological solutions in line with the European Green Deal. In order to better assess the opportunities, researchers in the <\/span>\u201cgreenSME\u201d<\/span><\/a>project have developed methods for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n … to <\/span>Gunnar Schulz-Lehnfeld<\/span><\/a> from the Institute of Architectural History. The research assistant was honoured by the Koldewey-Gesellschaft – Vereinigung f\u00fcr Baugeschichtliche Forschung with the <\/span>\u201c<\/span>F\u00f6rderpreis f\u00fcr den wissenschaftlichen Nachwuchs<\/span>\u201d<\/span> for his commitment to building research.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Architecture students are exhibiting their <\/span>visions for a sustainable neighbourhood<\/span><\/a> on the Sch\u00e4ferberg in Salzgitter-Thiede in the town hall until 18 June. Their works were created at the Institute for Sustainable Urbanism. The three best designs were awarded prizes at the opening of the exhibition.<\/span><\/p>\n The Transfer Service Unit is organising the first <\/span>\u201cSocial Impact Festival\u201d<\/span><\/a> on 5 June. Students and practice partners are invited to collect, discuss and implement ideas together. Municipal stakeholders, associations or small and medium-sized enterprises that are involved in social and ecological sustainability or are planning to do so are also very welcome.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Prof Marli Hatje and Prof Luciana Erina Palma from the Federal University of Santa Maria in Brazil recently visited the <\/span>Institute for Sport Science and Physical Education<\/span><\/a>. They were part of a consultancy project aimed at revising the curricula for physical education teacher training at Santa Maria and other Brazilian universities.<\/span><\/p>\n What is it like to study at TU Braunschweig and what degree programmes are offered? The <\/span>University Information Day<\/span><\/a> on 24 May gives prospective students the opportunity to get to know campus life through taster lectures, guided tours, exchange opportunities and a variety of participatory activities organised by the faculties.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The <\/span>programme<\/span><\/a> of the Competence Centre for Higher Education Didactics in Lower Saxony (KHN) enables teachers to complete the <\/span>\u201c<\/span>Lower Saxony State Certificate in Higher Education Teaching<\/span>\u201d <\/span>and offers a <\/span>selection of courses<\/span><\/a> that support teaching staff in the rapidly developing (higher education) world.<\/span><\/p>\n The impulse and exchange format <\/span>\u201c<\/span>Strategiekompass<\/span>\u201d<\/span> will take place on 13 June from 11:00 to 12:30. Managers will have the opportunity to gain new impetus for strategic action in their area of work with the Strategic University Development Unit. Registrations until 30 May via <\/span>StudIP<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n That’s what this semester’s <\/span>lecture series for young academics<\/span><\/a> is all about. The events take place on Thursdays at 18.30 on the North Campus. The lecture on 23 May is about <\/span>\u201c<\/span>How a growth mindset contributes to the long-term learning success of children and young people<\/span>\u201d<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n Our darling of the week is the first Alexander von Humboldt Professor at TU Braunschweig. For his excellent research in the field of microphotonics, <\/span>Professor Daniel Prades<\/span><\/a> and eleven other top international researchers each received the highest German research award, worth five million euros, in Berlin on 13 May. Prof Prades is moving from Barcelona to TU to support research at the Institute of Semiconductor Technology and in the QuantumFrontiers Cluster of Excellence.
