An exclusive glimpse behind the scenes: The summer events at TUM

Each year in July, the member of the TUM Association of Alumni and Friends is invited to visit a department or another institution of TUM. There, professors and outstanding young researchers present them their research projects in exciting lectures and interesting guided tours, followed by an opportunity for “questions and answers” together with a small snack.

Expert reports: “Forschung live”

In the course of the annual meeting, a TUM researcher will hold a special lecture for the members of the TUM Association of Alumni and Friends, providing insight into outstanding university research as well as surprising details about innovative projects.
