In the current winter semester, the bachelor’s programme in computer science at TU Braunschweig is the most popular. The subject has been one of the most sought-after in recent years. The subject is also becoming increasingly important in Niedersachsen’s schools: since the 2023\/24 school year, computer science has been a compulsory subject from the tenth grade, and since the beginning of the current school year it has even been a compulsory subject from the ninth grade. Accordingly, there is great interest in the region in what TU Braunschweig has to offer.<\/p>\n
The Computer Science Day provided an insight into the study of computer science, business informatics and information and systems technology. Topics such as artificial intelligence, robotics, system security, algorithms, computer graphics and medical informatics were presented in lectures and interactive demonstrations. Topics included ‘ChatGPT – How neural networks learn to chat’, ‘Does artificial intelligence really understand the ‘world’ and can it help us understand it?’, but also predicting extreme weather events, modern chip design and 3D drone footage in virtual reality. Students and teachers were also available for direct exchange<\/p>\n

Exchange between the university and schools in the region<\/h3>\n
“Especially after the interruption caused by the pandemic, it is very important to further intensify personal contacts in the region,” said Professor S\u00e1ndor Fekete, who coordinated the event. “This will enable us to strengthen the interaction between our university and schools in the region.”<\/p>\n
Contact with teachers is also a key concern. Professor Fekete points to the challenges posed by the introduction of computer science as a compulsory subject in schools: “It is not easy to increase capacity and provision at short notice. We are also in contact with teachers and schools. There are many ideas for further exchange and mutual support.”<\/p>\n
Following the great success of the event, the date for next year has already been set: the next Computer Science Day will take place on 26 January 2026, during the schools’ half-term break.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
