Studying with Impact: Developing competencies through project-based learning

Impact Learning aims to create a societal impact through project-based learning within the framework of studies and teaching, with the goal of collaboratively shaping a better future, guided by the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals.

This learning format fosters both the personal and professional development of students through knowledge acquisition and competence development, while simultaneously achieving an outward-facing impact on others, aligned with TU Braunschweig's transfer and knowledge exchange strategy.

Impact Learning enables students to collaborate on projects with partners from academia, business, and civil society. The programme is supported by the SQM project "tu4society" until 2027. Depending on the course, students can earn corresponding ECTS credits for their projects.

At TU Braunschweig, Impact Learning is implemented through impact projects within courses. As part of the support services, we provide the Sandkasten-Platform with project coaching and financial support, as well as our toolbox for project planning and reflection.

Are you interested in integrating Impact Learning into your course?

We offer support on integrating Impact Learning into your teaching and connecting with practical partners, as well as providing coaching for project teams. Please feel free to contact Gina Kerber, Coordinator for Impact Learning.
