STEM is fun and exciting, this experience could be made on Saturday, 13.05.2023, between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. at our MI(N)T-Mach offers at the Wilhelmshöher Allee location. All interested parties, especially families, were welcome to spend an eventful day. In addition to over 20 great hands-on offers from the University of Kassel, companies and institutions in the region, the traveling exhibition "Hands-on Mathematics" from the Mathematikum was also on display.
| Now it's flashing! -Electronics for beginners This hands-on event focuses on simple electronic circuits with a maximum of two transistors, which participants build independently on a breadboard. Beforehand, basic relationships are explained and the functionality of the circuits is discussed. (Department of Electrical Engineering/Computer Science) |
| Solar boats and ultralight solar mobiles Building a solar boat (from year 3) and an ultralight solar mobile (from year 5) (Department of Electrical Engineering/Computer Science) |
Jugend forscht: Project presentations
|
| Mini-Phenomenta At the Mini-Phenomenta, young and old can explore and tinker with their senses at interactive stations. Exciting technical phenomena arouse curiosity and encourage visitors to try things out and think. Our Maschinikum invites you to discover mechanical and technical processes that are otherwise hidden from view. (Technikmuseum Kassel) |
| Soldering exercises Depending on how much time you have, you can do various soldering exercises here. Of course, you can then take the things you have built home with you. Our trainees will also be happy to answer your questions about the various apprenticeships. Come along! (SMA) |
| Dynamics in everyday life Vibrations occur in many different ways in nature. What types of vibrations are there? What significance do vibrations have in everyday life, in scientific research and in industrial applications? These questions will be answered at a stand using various experiments as examples. (Department of Mechanical Engineering) |
| Fluid mechanical phenomena The field of fluid mechanics deals with the movement of liquids and gases. Flow processes play a major role in nature and technology. Exciting experiments at a stand provide an insight into the behavior of fluids. (Department of Mechanical Engineering) |
| Development of storage media Hardware development is progressing ever faster. Storage media are becoming smaller and smaller, yet their performance is increasing enormously. Storage media from past decades to the current status are exhibited at the information stand and their development is explained by the supervisor. (Department of Mechanical Engineering) |
| Sweet Engineering: We investigate a bending bar made of chocolate - "Violence is not the answer! " Breaking a chocolate bar is easy, but is it any easier? At the test stand, you learn about different types of stress and can apply the knowledge gained in an experiment. In the spirit of sustainable experimentation, there is a sweet reward. (Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering) |
| eRowboat Development of an electric rowing boat: system properties, drive train, transmission technology, power and control electronics. (Department of Electrical Engineering/Computer Science) |
| Deine Energiewende Development and use of a novel, web-based decision support system for the techno-economic design of renewable power-heat systems. (Department of Electrical Engineering/Computer Science) |
| The hot wire I Am MINT Region Nordhessen |
| From potato, sunflower & co to the finished component - the processing and development of durable biocomposites II At this stand, you will learn all about the components of bioplastics and biocomposites and how their properties are researched in terms of strength, structure and odor. |
| PV energy and high voltage In small hands-on experiments, we will introduce interested pupils to the technology behind photovoltaics and power electronics. We will show that electricity can also be musical and at the same time ensure mobility. (Department of Electrical Engineering/Computer Science) |
| Rocket science At this stand, you have the opportunity to launch a small rocket. The principles on which rocket flight is based will be explained and demonstrated. (Department of Mechanical Engineering) |
MINT experiments

| Measurements in the natural sciences All interested parties are welcome to get to know and practically implement hands-on experiments in the natural sciences at secondary level I. (Nawi-LoLa-Lernort-Labor) |
| IHK-Forscherkids: "STEM education right from the start" As a partner of the "Haus der kleinen Forscher" foundation, the IHK-Kassel Marburg offers STEM training courses for nursery and primary school teachers in all districts of North Hesse. At the family day, visitors will learn about the STEM training courses offered by the foundation. There will also be hands-on activities for children to discover the "STEM world" in a fun way. (Kassel Chamber of Industry and Commerce) |
| Information stand of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering will have an information stand on Family Day during STEM Week. Here you can obtain information about degree courses and the department and talk to students from the student council. |
