Opening hours of the University Library
From Monday to Friday after 19:00 and at weekends heating will be only be switched on in the new building area of the UB. This will allow us to provide more than 300 study spaces even during the off-peak hours and to meet the calculated demand during the examination periods. Information on opening hours can be found on the UB website: https://www.tu-braunschweig.de/en/ub.
If there is a shortage of learning spaces, we will make up the shortage.
An overview of the study spaces can be found here: https://www.tu-braunschweig.de/en/learning-spaces.
Bundling of events in the Audimax
The use of the Audimax will be planned to avoid gaps and to avoid heating when they are not in use.
No external in the Audimax by external parties
Due to the energy-intensive operation of the building, external events are not permitted during the heating period. However, they can be rescheduled for the summer term.
Events not related to research and teaching may only take place in the Audimax in exceptional cases, and then only in time slots adjacent to the scheduled heating periods.
Exceptions are possible for TU events in special individual cases. These should only take place in the hours to adjacent the lectures. Room requests are forwarded by the Lecture Room Allocation Office (Hörsaalvergabe) to the core team of the Advisory Committee on Supply Security for a decision.
Consolidation of weekend block courses in rooms in seminar buildings BI.85 and BI.97 (North Campus)
In order to make weekend block courses as energy efficient as possible, they will be held in rooms that can be heated efficiently. This avoids the need to inefficiently heat large buildings for individual events. As was the case last winter term, all block sessions will therefore be held on the North Campus.
Sports Centre – Campus Gym remains open
The CampusGym, the fitness area in the TU sports hall on Beethovenstraße, has a good energy conservation concept so that it can remain open during the winter term.
