The TUmorrow Awards<\/a> are intended to encourage scientific and voluntary commitment to sustainability, to create greater visibility and to express appreciation. The aim is also to accelerate the achievement of the various sustainability goals<\/a> in all performance dimensions in line with the agreed strategic direction of TU Braunschweig. The decision on the winners of the TUmorrow Awards was made by the Green Office<\/a> in cooperation with a jury consisting of members from all TU status groups.<\/p>\n

The award for Student Commitment went to Dennis Ruth, Kai Purwig, Fabian Schwartau, Lukas Zilian, Clemens Nowitzki, Markus Windelen<\/strong> and Nils Grehm<\/strong> for the “Open Bike Sensor” project. The Open Bike Sensor measures the overtaking distance between motor vehicles and cyclists. The organisers were able to motivate many people to take part and install a sensor on their bike. The measured data is visualised in heat maps and provides objective and transparent evidence of where and how often people overtake too closely. By collaborating with regional traffic initiatives and embedding the project in research and teaching at TU Braunschweig, the data collected will help to provide the administration and politicians with additional information to help them take action.<\/p>\n

Bachelor’s thesis<\/h3>\n

The Outstanding Bachelor’s Thesis Award went to Kay-Laurens Niemeijer<\/strong>, an Industrial and Mechanical Engineering student, for his Bachelor’s thesis entitled “Bewertung von klimabedingten Transitionsrisiken\u201c (Assessment of climate-related transition risks). His thesis provides a comprehensive overview of transition risks, i.e. the financial risks that companies and investors may face in the transition to a lower-carbon economy and society. He also shows how these can be quantified in scientific models, critically assesses the methodologies and results, and describes the long-term climate change implications.<\/p>\n

Master’s thesis<\/h3>\n

Luisa Strzelczyk<\/strong> received the award for the “most sustainable” Master’s thesis. The topic of her award-winning thesis in the Environmental Engineering degree programme was “Erweiterung einer Kl\u00e4ranlage unter Ber\u00fccksichtigung energetischer und ressourcen\u00f6konomischer Aspekte\u201c (Expansion of a wastewater treatment plant under consideration of energy and resource efficiency aspects). In her thesis, she examined the integration of additional wastewater from the neighbouring municipality into the Bienenb\u00fcttel wastewater treatment plant as part of an inter-municipal cooperation. She measured the load and capacity of the plant and checked that it was working properly. She also measured energy consumption to identify potential savings and to develop an overall ecological concept for energy optimisation and expansion of the plant. Her work is characterised by a holistic view of the treatment plant and the transferability of the concept, as well as the ease of practical implementation at other treatment plants.<\/p>\n

Course<\/h3>\n

Dr. Thorsten Schoormann<\/strong> and Prof. Dr. Frederik M\u00f6ller<\/strong> from the Department of Data-Driven Enterprise at the Institute of Business Information Systems received the award for the most outstanding course. Their course \u201cDigitale Gesch\u00e4ftsmodelle und Nachhaltigkeit\u201c (DiGeNa) (Digital Business Models and Sustainability) used a variety of teaching methods to provide students with the skills to systematically visualise, analyse and innovate business models, with a particular focus on environmental and social sustainability goals. Students were able to put these skills into practice immediately and try out new business solutions to problems of their own choosing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
