Next event: Visit of the tim (Textile and Industry Museum)
?
Saturday, May 4, 2024
The tim displays the heritage of Augsburg’s textile industry, which was thriving in the 19th century, and is part of the European Route of Industrial Heritage. It is located in the historic building of a former worsted spinning mill, but does not only focus on the past. It also shows current developments emerging in the textile world with its high-tech section revolving around entirely new areas of application. From intelligent clothing and artificial muscle to carbon products, the tim demonstrates the opportunities of the future of textiles.
?
The guided tour 'From Raw Material to Fashion' will be approx. 90 minutes and will show us the full production cycle, including the machine hall. Afterwards, we well have lunch together.

Networking Reception
Every semester, the Welcome Service organizes a reception for researchers from abroad and their hosts. The purpose of the reception is to welcome all researchers from abroad to Augsburg 新万博体育下载_万博体育app【投注官网】 and to acknowledge the commitment of their hosts.

After an official welcome by Prof. Dr. Peter Welzel, Vice President for Research, Internationalization, Human Resources Development and Strategic Financial Planning, there will be the opportunity for an interdisciplinary and intercultural exchange of experiences over a small snack. The reception also provides an ideal opportunity for cross-faculty networking.

The networking reception takes place in October during the winter semester and in May during the summer semester. The dates will be announced several weeks in advance.
Events in Augsburg
Every semester, the Welcome Service offers numerous events within Augsburg.

Excursions in the region
Not only the city of Augsburg, but also the rest of Bavaria has a lot to offer. Therefore, the Welcome Service organizes three big excursions every semester. The aim of these excursions is for the international scholars to get to know each other and explore the region while spending a pleasant day, far away from everyday university life. Family members who have come to Augsburg or are visiting can also take part in the excursions.
?
The offer is extremely wide-ranging: from city trips and museum visits to boat trips and hikes in nature, everything is included. In addition to the most important sights in Bavaria, such as Neuschwanstein Castle or the state capital Munich, insider tips such as the medieval town of Landsberg am Lech or the Partnachklamm gorge have also been visited in recent semesters. Beyond Bavarian excursion destinations, the cities of Salzburg and Bregenz in neighboring Austria have also been explored.?

Scientific Talk
With the Scientific Talk, a new series of lectures is being established which enables researchers from abroad to present their fields of research to other researchers as well as to a broader public. Thus, an international academic exchange not only internally, but also outside the university will be possible.
?
On May 28, 2019, a Scientific Talk was held for the first time in cooperation with the Sparkassen Planetarium Augsburg, which attracted great attention.?
?
More information can be found in the event flyer .
?
Due to the pandemic, further Scientific Talks were held virtually via Zoom in an internal setting and were well received overall.
