Impact Learning (SQM-funded) connects the university and society. We promote courses in which students work on real social, environmental or economic challenges – together with partners from science, business and civil society. This brings theory to life and makes learning effective.

Impact Learning at a glance

  • Collaboration with external partners from the region as a contribution to opening up the university to society.
  • Working on real issues and challenges in project work.
  • Financial support, coaching, tools and certificates for project teams.
  • Because: 66.7% of students want their studies to be more practice-oriented. (‘Wie gehts Dir?’ Survey on study conditions and health at TU Braunschweig 2022)
