What‘s your nicest memory of Braunschweig and do you have a favorite place?

Braunschweig has become my HOME. One of my favorite places is the stadium on Hamburger Straße—even though my team and I have gone through stressful times more then once there. Another favorite place is the Bürgerpark.

 

Reasons why the TU Braunschweig is a great place to study:

Basically, you can get just about anywhere by bike.

Describe the time of your studies in 3 words:

  • long
  • thorough
  • (with) insights (into related fields)

Which contents of your studies can you still use in your career today?

The ability to reflect deeply and look beyond the surface of things.

 

Are you still in touch with former fellow students? Do you see each other and if so, how often?

Unfortunately, I am not.

 

What advice would you give current students for their personal career planning?

  1. Go your own way.
  2. Try new things.
  3. Build relationships and nurture them.

In one sentence - In the future I wish the TU Braunschweig:

An end to the backlog of renovation work in order to provide top-notch study conditions.
