Teaching and experimental kitchen Students studying Teacher Training - Middle Schools and the vocational Department of Food, Nutrition and Home Economics have optimal conditions in the teaching and experimental kitchen to acquire and deepen their basic knowledge and practical skills in the field of food and consumer education. In conjunction with the seminar rooms, students have the opportunity to combine theoretical and practical content in a targeted manner and to test themselves in teaching-learning arrangements.
From the summer semester 2025, a bromatology laboratory will be available to the faculty in the new faculty building MS 1, room 162, Münchnerstraße 1. For the time being, access is only possible when accompanied by the lecturers, so we ask you to arrive in front of staircase 2 shortly before the start of your course.
