TU Braunschweig Summer School

The International Entrepreneurship Summer School is a one-week series of lectures, seminars and workshops hosted by TU Braunschweig and Ostfalia University of Applied Sciences at their joint Entrepreneurship Hub. This year's Summer School will run from Sep. 06- Sept.13 and will be held entirely online. During the course of the week, students and researchers from around the world will form teams based on their interests and expertise. All teams will participate in entrepreneurship seminars and design an innovative business plan based on their research and academic work. They will also be able to select one of four tracks focusing on a particular area of interest: Engineering Design, Digital Business Opportunities, Industrial Sustainability, and Healthcare. In addition, each team will be supported by a business coach. 

Participation is free of charge for qualified applicants. Places are limited and allocated on a rolling basis.

Our summer course has a long tradition: Every year we offer a 4-week intensive course in German language and culture during the summer semester break. In this course you will learn German in small groups at 4 different language levels. You will have 6 lessons on each of the five weekdays, during which you will improve your grammar, pronunciation and vocabulary at the language levels A2, B1, B2 and C1. You will also learn a lot about German culture and regional studies.

The classes will probably take place online this year. They will be accompanied by an extensive excursion and social programme. The way the programme takes place will depend on the hygiene regulations that apply at the time. At present, we expect to be able to offer much of the programme in small groups, but some of it may only be possible online. We will visit historic towns, museums and regional companies. We will see some of TU Braunschweig’s research facilities and have innovative research projects explained to us. During field trips we get more familiar with the nature and culture of the region. Movie nights and enough free time to explore Braunschweig on your own round off our programme.

The course is aimed at students and young professionals from all over the world who want to use the semester break to improve their German. It is particularly suitable for all students from our partner universities who are planning to study at TU Braunschweig in the following semester.

Metrology – the science of correct measurement – is an essential cornerstone of our modern industrialized society. Metrology has an impact on practically every aspect of our lives, and metrological progress is a key enabler for technical development and, thus, for innovation.

In 2007, TU Braunschweig and one of the top measurement institutions in the world, the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB), joined forces to establish the Braunschweig International Graduate School of Metrology (B-IGSM), in order to foster metrological knowledge in all areas of science and engineering.

Every year, the Graduate School offers an international summer school on current research topics in metrology. The programme for this year is in preparation. The realisation will depend on the development of the Corona pandemic in the upcoming months.
