TU Dresden launches a contest about 'Access and Locking Systems' that will start in the winter semester 2011/12. The winners will be awarded monetary prizes of a total amount of 3000 Euro.

Following a first practice, students of the TU Dresden should get involved in designing and shaping their campus and demonstrate their creativity in an annual ideas competition under the slogan 'Campus 2020'. Finally, this type of collaboration is an important target of TU Dresden’s future concept in the context of the 'Exzellenzbewegung'. 

The first competition, starting in the winter semester 2011/12, is planned to occur in the context of cooperation with T-Systems Multimedia Solutions GmbH. The best proposed concepts will be awarded monetary prizes by the T-Systems MMS of a total amount of 3000 Euro. Additionally, the Studentenwerk will sponsor the competition with Mensa coupons.

Topic

Modern and sustainable ideas are sought regarding campus-wide access systems and locking systems, with easy and efficient operability: creative, ambitious, amazingly simple, or surprising solutions, which give access to simple seminar rooms and computer pools or other areas of the students campus life and improve everyday life at the university. In the best case, solutions will already support conditions of data security, barrier free accessibility, access right management or extended application areas such as Mensa settlement, library use, guideposts, etc.
