Discover the world outside the lecture with us! In addition to our lectures, we offer exciting excursions that take place during the excursion week in the summer semester as well as during the lecture periods. These excursions allow you to deepen your theoretical knowledge through real-life application scenarios and to experience the diverse aspects of the aviation industry and engineering world at first hand.
This winter semester, we are offering students an exciting two-day excursion from 1 to 2 December 2025 on the topic of short-term dynamic crash and impact testing of structures in vehicle and aircraft construction. On the first day, we will travel to Münster to visit Crashtest-Service (CTS) to gain insights into crash test dummy technology, experience a live car crash test and assess the damage. After an evening programme and overnight stay at a hotel, we will travel to IABG in Lichtenau the next day, where we will observe ballistic tests, e.g. bird strike tests, hail strike tests, etc. Participation is free of charge for students enrolled in the Master's lecture ‘Crash and Impact Dynamics of Lightweight Structures’. We recommend enrolling today. The registration deadline for the excursion is the end of October 2025 via the IFL Secretariat.
