The “Long Night of Science” – Science in a different way

The “Long Night of Science” was a great success: on July 21st, up to 7,000 visitors found their way to the campus of the University South between 4pm and midnight. Many of them also visited the HIU.

From 4 to 9:30 pm the highly interested visitors of all age classes were able to gain an insight into the current battery research. The great interest was shown not only by the permanently well-filled lecture room, but especially by the multitude of questions following the respective lecture. The highly frequented guided tours through the building and selected laboratories allowed visitors to get an impression of the everyday life of the scientists.
