MINTdigital: online STEM subject series for school pupils
MINTdigital gives pupils from year 10 onwards the opportunity to gain exciting insights into current research and enter into dialog with scientists. This digital format of science communication for young people takes a closer look at topics in the STEM sciences, i.e. Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, as well as studying and careers in these subjects.
MINTdigital in March 2024
This time it will be applied again: Scientists from the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at TU Dresden will take the students on a journey to the latest developments in mechanical engineering.
Dates: 29.02. - 21.03.24 on Thursdays, the fifth date will be on Wednesday, 27.03.24.
Time: 16:30 - 18:00
Grade level: from 10th grade until after the Abitur.
The events are based on the level of the first semester of study.
MINT-EC: Students from MINT-EC schools can register on the MINT-EC website. They can receive five MINT-EC points for the MINT-EC certificate if they participate fully and submit an assignment. Here you can also find out whether your school is a MINT-EC school.
MINT-EC points can only be awarded if you register via the MINT-EC website!
Students from all other schools can register via the TU Dresden registration form. If you participate in at least four dates, you will receive a certificate of participation.
Registration deadline: 22.02.2024
Program in March 2024
From vision to reality: groundbreaking trends in mechanical engineering
Machines play a key role in our world. From telephones and airplanes to technology in hospitals: machines offer a wide range of opportunities to solve the challenges of our time. For example, how can clothing be produced more sustainably and recycled at the end of its life? Can the shortage of transplant organs be countered with machine-woven organs?
The path from problem to development, design and production to a solution in machine form is the topic of MINTdigital, the online lecture series for students at TU Dresden. In the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, medicine, food, materials and many other aspects of life meet the engineering sciences. The series presents current research and findings on the latest development trends in mechanical engineering, process and natural materials engineering and materials science and encourages participation!
