Excursions
The IME organizes several excursions yearly. Beside of one-day excursions, which belong to certain lectures, there is also a two-week excursion every autumn. During those we visit several companies working in the field of non-ferrous metallurgy and related industries.
The goal of the excursions is, that students, but also institute employees can gain extensive insight into the diversity of metallurgical appliances.
In addition to technical aspects, getting to know new interesting countries or regions with their differing cultures is emphasized. That way, the two-week-excursions regularly go abroad. to European- and non-European countries.
For students participation is low-priced. For further information, ask the organising teams of the next excursion.
Excursion 2025
In September 2025, we will travel through northern Germany for a week and visit partners from industry and science. More information will follow soon.
