“Stroll to the next stop, enjoy your time here with us at the university,” says the President of TH Lübeck, Dr. Muriel Helbig, to the numerous guests who came to the campus for “Fascination Technology”. Helbig opened the festival with a robotic dog race.
Around 700 interested people strolled across the campus, found out about the courses on offer, visited the laboratories, questioned the TH Lübeck researchers with interest and nibbled on crêpes, burgers, French fries and ice cream while listening to music by Adam Brixton.
Soap bubbles flew at junior campus through the air, which honored the commitment of over 900 children in the morning. Whether daycare, primary school or secondary school: they all submitted the most creative objects that they had made from the rubbish they had collected.
The JuniorCampus of the TH Lübeck praised the competitions “A world without garbage – or what we can make of it?!” and “Creative environmental kids wanted – We build/design the classroom of the future!” in cooperation with the energy competence center Schleswig-Holstein, the Rose Foundation and the Sparkassen Foundation in Lübeck.
“In our recklessness we thought: you can’t build big with rubbish… It was delivered with Sprinters, delivered with trailers. We have learned that next time we will also have to think about the size,” says Janina Mahncke from the JuniorCampus.
Many parents and their children scurried around. The festival attracted young and old alike to the campus. The guests visited the shattering lab, soft-egg lab, discovered machines for small details, played the Hansesim game, found out about the wind turbine experiment, visited the bees in the campus beekeeping, controlled the CoSA robot dogs, found out about courses at the TH Lübeck, marveled at the Seagulls, played serious games on sustainability issues, found out what advances the TH Lübeck is making in terms of gender equality, marveled at what virtual product development means in mechanical engineering and what robots are doing in the construction industry, tasted ice cream, saw air and water pollution is measured, found out about the new mechatronics course, got to know the facets of electrical engineering and computer science, made a support for your mobile phone with the 3D printer, went on a dream trip, discovered life in sewage, dived with the underwater robot, experienced the Acoustic rooms, got insights into the CIB and the inner workings of a mobile phone, were amazed at what we can learn from a gecko and water strider for surface technology applications, experienced medical technology hands-on, learned what CAD is and listened to four science slammers from the TH Lübeck. Discovered the fascination for technology in all its facets in one day.
