The project ”Research and Learning in an In-terdisciplinary Context (FLiK) Bionics” is con-tinuing. The opening lecture will deal with biological structures and materials as well as with techniques for the analysis of their functional principles. It also goes into the realisation of technical and technological imitations of natural models. Teachers from different disciplines will be contributing their perspectives.

The FLiK modules for researching and learning in an interdisciplinary context were de-veloped by the Centre for Interdisciplinary Learning and Teaching (ZiLL) as part of TU Dresden’s Institutional Strategy, and provide students with the opportunity to gain inter-disciplinary insights into current research.

The aim of the two-semester modules is to enable students to carry out independent research projects within the framework of research workshops.

Prof. Maik Gude (Institute of Lightweight Engineering and Polymer Technology) is re-sponsible for the modules. The lectures start on 11 October 2018, and will take place on Thursdays, 2:50 p.m., room 403 at the Auditorium Centre (Hörsaalzentrum). Registration is still possible.
