Transfer Journey

Knowledge transfer as competence development

We provide services for everyone at TU Braunschweig to enhance transfer and collaboration skills. We focus on "Future Skills" such as interdisciplinary thinking and action, starting even with school students. We support students and young researchers in sustainability projects and accompany innovative ideas from the establishment of an association or company to implementation. Co-creation formats help to consider transfer and collaboration in research and teaching from the outset.

Our services

Next Generation

The TU Braunschweig is particularly committed to fostering early career support. The AG Schule-Uni pursues under the umbrella brand Check-in - Discover Science! The initiatives aim to engage children and adolescents of all ages and school types, sparking their interest in science and research.

Commitment and Public Welfare

We offer opportunities for community-oriented engagement alongside studies and teaching – to make sustainable changes, shape things oneself, or simply be part of it.

Co-Creation

Societal problems require the perspective of many to become solvable. With the principle of Co-Creation, spaces for collaborative problem-solving are opened.

The Children's University with Podcast Series

The Children's University Braunschweig tackles current research topics. Scientists conduct lectures each winter semester for children aged 8 to 12. The Children's University is accompanied by the podcast series 'Cleverly Asked,' where students engage in dialogue with TU scientists and ask intriguing questions about sustainability.

tu4society: Service Learning & Social Innovation

With the project tu4society, we enable and promote social and ecological involvement on campus and beyond. Within the framework of teaching and studies, ideas can be developed, prototypes tested, and projects implemented, which strengthen the cooperation and transfer skills of students from all faculties.

Community Café

Once a month, the Knowledge Transfer team hosts a Community Café. In a relaxed café atmosphere, space is provided for exchange. Each time, the community café focuses on a new main theme.


Think & Do Sustainability.

Knowledge transfer integrated into research and teaching – and in line with our sustainability goals

We develop participatory methods and formats integrated into research and teaching.

  • For the common good
    Our support services are aimed at students and teachers in bachelor's and master's programs, as well as junior researchers and TU employees, who wish to conduct transfer- and cooperation-oriented projects for the common good on campus or with practice partners.
  • Actice skill development
    We are working on new projects such as "Service Learning" in teaching and collaboration with practice partners for "Social Innovations". These projects are funded as part of "tu4society" and will promote the transfer and cooperation skills of students. Another project called "Non-profit Spin-offs" is being carried out in collaboration with the Technology Transfer division of the Transfer Service.
