What‘s your nicest memory of Braunschweig and do you have a favorite place?

The Prinzenpark in summer.

 

Reasons why the TU Braunschweig is a great place to study:

As a medium-sized university, TUBS is human and approachable - there is also close contact between the degree programmes and faculties.

 

Describe the time of your studies in 3 words:

  • Learning new things
  • Lifelong friendships
  • Working independently

Which contents of your studies can you still use in your career today?

In addition to specialist knowledge, this includes the ability to organize oneself.

 

Are you still in touch with former fellow students? Do you see each other and if so, how often?

Yes, a group of fellow students meets several times a year - some very close friendships have existed since the orientation week in the 1st Bachelor's semester.

 

What advice would you give current students for their personal career planning?

The choice of specialisation in the Master programme lays the foundation for your career. You will learn a lot - even non-technical things.

 

In one sentence - In the future I wish the TU Braunschweig:

More visibility in an international context.
