10 years BTU Festival

On July 1, 2023, it will be ten years since the BTU Cottbus and Lausitz University of Applied Sciences merged to form what is now Brandenburg Technical University Cottbus-Senftenberg.

We are one together and we want to celebrate that. With campus festivals for everyone who lives in our region and also with guest. With open doors to our laboratories, studios and lecture halls. With hands-on science and a program that is just as colorful as Cottbus and Senftenberg. It is intended to inspire all generations for science, research and progress. Together we celebrate what we have achieved in the past 10 years and create an anniversary party that makes you look forward to the future.

On this occasion we are part of the supporting program and show with our poster gallery what the DFG priority program SPP2255 construction in cultural heritage has to offer. At the same time, normally hidden load-bearing structures of highmodern buildings can be explored on this day from 2-5:30 p.m. via touch screen and 3D interactive technology. We look forward to numerous interested visitors in building 2D/C at Konrad Wachsmann Allee 8, BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg.

The former Berlin-Tempelhof Airport is one of the largest listed building complexes in Germany. Built between 1936 and 1941, the facility mirrors several phases of German history in a unique way. The huge building complex is also of particular importance in terms of construction history; back in 2011, it was already honored by the Federal Chamber of Engineers as a “Historical Landmark of the Art of Engineering”.
