What is special about the TU Braunschweig?

A special place to study: Braunschweig
More than 16,000 people work in research institutions in the Braunschweig region and an additional 20,000 in industrial research and development - this represents about 4% of the total employment in the region and therefore the highest density of scientists in Europe. Thanks to the large number of students, Braunschweig is a very lively and colourful city: You will find all sorts of clubs, ranging from mainstream to alternative to electro, from pubs to jazz clubs. If you are looking for something a bit different at the weekend: The German capital Berlin is only a 90-minute train ride away. The city is known for its many parks and recreational spaces and is home to a number of top sports clubs.

A wide range of options
You are interested in all areas of sustainability and could not decide which specialisation area to choose? No one expects you to commit to a particular direction right away: We take three semesters to teach you the basics. Furthermore, we offer numerous options for lectures in your selected specialisation area so that you can study exactly according to your interests. This principle continues later in the large number of master's degree programs we offer.

Beyond the lectures
You can also get involved in a professional and interdisciplinary way outside of lectures. Get involved in one of the many student initiatives - such as joining the Lions Racing Team and sending Formula Student cars to the race track. Maybe you would like to spend a semester interacting with someone with professional experience in business or academia - then join our successful Mentor.ING program. And if you want to take a break and concentrate on your own studies in peace and quiet, then the Masch.Bau student house with its study rooms is at your disposal.
