➀ Students from the 11th grade and above participated in the Winter School at Technische Hochschule Würzburg-Schweinfurt (THWS) to explore the fields of mathematics and robotics.
➁ The event included building and programming robots, learning about collaborative robots, and exploring fractals.
➂ The program aimed to show students the diverse aspects of robotics, including mechanics, electronics, and programming.
➀ Professor Dr. rer. nat. Peter Benner has taken over the position of Managing Director at the Max Planck Institute Magdeburg for the years 2025 and 2026.
➁ His tenure follows that of Professor Dr.-Ing. Kai Sundmacher, who led the Institute in 2023 and 2024.
➂ Benner emphasizes the importance of collaborative research and the pursuit of sustainable chemical and biotechnological production, as well as the use of renewable energy.
➀ The FH Kiel team has developed an interactive mathematics practice platform called mintSH to help reduce dropout rates in STEM programs.
➁ The platform offers over 2,000 practice problems from applied mathematics fields including engineering sciences, computer science, and inductive statistics.
➂ During the pilot phase, about 850 STEM students from three universities in Schleswig-Holstein used mintSH, receiving positive feedback from both students and teachers.
