From theory to practice – Pupils from Gerlingen visited the HIU

In the course of a two-day field excursion, pupils from the Robert-Bosch Secondary School Gerlingen visited the HIU on the 27th of April 2017. Following a presentation by managing director Dr. Dagmar Oertel, the visitors were given a guided tour through the laboratories by Dr. Oertel and scientist Tobias Braun.

The main purpose of the visit was to provide the pupils with an insight into research on batteries and to present possible career opportunities. The 20 students of 10th grade, who focus on natural sciences with their chosen subject NwT (natural sciences and engineering), showed interest in current research topics and alternative research focuses.
