Special features regarding teaching

School reference from the very beginning: School internships from 1st semester, didactics in physics from the 2nd semester onwards, subject teaching in the student laboratory of the Institute of Physics from the 5th semester onwards. Teaching Qualification is central: All courses are geared towards the teaching profession. No "running along" in events designed for purely technical study. Personal atmosphere: Manageable classes, courses usually in small groups, students and lecturers get to know each other quickly.

Special features regarding the equipment

For computer simulations and visualisation: Computer cluster, workstation pool, CAVE; model workshop for the development of demonstration models: several 3D printers (filament printers, stereolithography printers), large-format printers, laser cutter; for the experimental training of student teachers: Physics collection with demonstration and student experiments.

Special features regarding research activities

Visualisation of relativity: Computer-generated movies and interactive simulations, including black holes, wormholes, near-light-speed motions. Didactics of relativity: Development of new approaches to general relativity suitable for schools. The focus is on the development of new visual models and interactive simulations. Tests and evaluations in the student laboratory "Spacetime Workshop" of the Institute of Physics.

Support for founders

With the "Competence Workshop for Entrepreneurship and Transfer", the University of Hildesheim offers advice, qualification and infrastructures for setting up a business.
