The Hochschule für angewandte Wissenschaft und Kunst (HAWK) is excited to announce its Hochschulinfotage, happening on March 10 and 11, 2025, at its Göttingen campus. This event is set to provide prospective students with comprehensive insights about available programs, particularly within the fields of engineering and health sciences.
Attendees on March 10 will be welcomed to the Engineering campus from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM, where they will experience engaging presentations and demonstrations. These sessions will tackle innovative questions like the integration of robotics within engineering fields and the uses of medical imaging technologies. Participants will also have the unique opportunity to witness the HAWK's Formula Student team showcase practical applications of their engineering expertise, underscoring the program's emphasis on real-world engagement.
Later, from 2:15 PM to 6:00 PM at the Health Campus Göttingen located on Annastraße 25, the focus will shift to programs related to health and social sciences. Prospective enrollees will learn about course offerings, dual training opportunities, and the requirements needed for admission. Guided tours of state-of-the-art skills labs will allow students to observe how HAWK prepares them for practical roles within the healthcare sector.
Equipped with personal advice from staff about the application process, attendees can ask specific questions through individual consultations, ensuring they depart well-informed about their future academic paths.
Another significant event highlights the environment—the annual clean-up drive organized by local authorities aimed at encouraging citizens to combat littering and promote community responsibility. This initiative welcomes all community members to join forces and make their neighborhood cleaner. Interested individuals must register through their respective municipal offices to participate, solidifying the collaborative spirit among citizens and local governments.
Underlining the importance of volunteerism, County Commissioner Martin Brandl expressed his gratitude for the countless volunteers who have participated year after year to maintain the beauty of the county’s landscapes. "These volunteers not only demonstrate enormous civic pride but also provide substantial benefits to our environment," he noted.
Sports enthusiasts will also find something to engage with as the HSV eSports community has rolled out registration for its Wildcard Tournament, taking place online on March 7, 2025. This tournament offers players the chance to qualify for the VBL Open Playoffs later in April. Open to players aged 16 and above who reside in Germany, the tournament promises fierce competition, with only 64 slots available for participants. Notably, the matches will be broadcast live, allowing fans to join the action from the comfort of their homes.
Lastly, individuals interested in advancing their careers through education can register for the Gewerkschaftsschule. Commencing in September 2025, this program is geared toward union members eager to gain skills relevant to labor law and negotiation tactics. Locations will be offered across Niederösterreich, and the classes promise to be beneficial not only for personal growth but also for contributing positively to workplace environments.
The labor negotiations and legal education are especially relevant for union members seeking to empower themselves and their colleagues. The organizers have ensured accessibility as the program is free of charge. Information sessions will be held to guide prospective students on how to enroll and what to expect.
Each of these events exemplifies the growing opportunities for community engagement, educational advancement, and environmental responsibility. Individuals are encouraged to register early to secure their spots and make the most of what these occasions have to offer.
