In cooperation with TechnologieAllianzOberfranken (TAO), students gain insights into scientific methods used in forensics. During the workshop, they examine traces, analyse findings and explore how biological and chemical methods can contribute to solving forensic cases.

City4Future combines sustainability education with questions of urban development. Students explore energy, mobility, resource use and quality of life, and develop ideas for a future-ready city. Funded by Wissensfabrik, the project shows how science learning, social responsibility and creative design can work together.

In this project, students investigate wild bees and other insects that colonise nesting boxes. Digital tools support the documentation, identification and analysis of their observations. In this way, biodiversity education, scientific inquiry and citizen science are brought together.

Mushroom Cultivation in the Classroom is a seminar funded by the Office of Innovation, Transfer and Entrepreneurship (BIG) and combines social entrepreneurship with biological practice. The seminar introduces the basics of mushroom cultivation, tests mushroom growing in reusable buckets and develops accompanying teaching materials.

With STEMmobil, we bring science experiments and learning opportunities to schools and extracurricular partners in the region. The aim is to provide children and young people with low-threshold, hands-on and activating access to biology, chemistry and other STEM topics.

Connecting research and school practice is an important concern for us. We therefore offer occasional professional development courses for teachers from all types of schools. These are usually announced on the “Fortbildung in bayerischen Schulen” (FIBS) website.
