The LWT was represented at the annual meeting of SPP 2122 "Materials for Additive Manufacturing" also in 2024 which took place from 11. to 12.March 2024 in Essen.
On February 15, 2024, the Dörrenberg StudienAWARD was presented in keeping with a long-standing tradition to students who have dealt with materials technology issues relating to steel, heat treatment, surface technology or process engineering during their studies.
We welcome Sophia and Robert, who are completing their Voluntary Scientific Year (FWJ for short) at the LWT. They are carrying out independent experiments and gain an insight into the world of materials and various processes aimed at optimizing materials in line with sustainable development. As part of the FWJ, Sophia and Robert also have the opportunity to attend lectures from the entire RUB range.
Materials science and engineering can be studied at both universities and universities of applied sciences - either as an independent course of study or as a field of study or specialization of natural science or engineering courses. The DGM study handbook provides prospective students with an overview of all study options. It supports pupils in their decision-making process and serves as a guide through the variety of courses on offer throughout Germany. Please use the link to read the handbook online or to order a free print version.
A LOOK BEHIND THE SCENES
