Pro Thuringian Engineering Life Cycle
The project ProTELC - Pro Thuringian Engineering Life Cycle supported by the Allianz-ThürING, aims at strengthening the successful study of engineering science in Thuringia, focusing on supporting the students from the moment they decide to go for an academic engineering degree till the incorporation into the working sector.
ProTELC is divided in three phases. The “Phasing-In” serves as an orientation phase with preliminary courses before starting a specialist course, serving as a reinforcement of existing knowledge and incorporation into the engineering sciences.
The second phase “Studying Successfully” intents to motivate students who are already incorporated in an engineering program with refresher courses and Science Camps, the later happening twice per year for Bachelor students and students from Master programs.
The last phase “Phasing-Out” focuses on supporting the students with e-modules for soft skill development and learning modules for the integration in to the job-market. Additional support is to be given for strengthening the network between Industry and the participating Universities.

35 students from the seven Allianz-Thüring partner universities are invited to take part in the next ProTELC Science Camp "LOGIK-ING", which is being organized by Duale Hochschule Gera-Eisenach (DHGE) in cooperation with Bauhaus-Universität Weimar. The Science Camp will take place from 03.03. to 07.03.2025 at DHGE – Eisenach Campus.

Digital Twin (2022)
1st Science Camp for Bachelor students
The 1st Science Camp "Digital Twin" for Bachelor students of all Thuringian universities took place from 07- 11 March 2022 in TU Ilmenau. The Science Camp focused on the basics of programming to develop digital data captured by sensors from a self-built wind turbine.

Sustainability (2022)
1st Science Camp for Master students
The Science Camp "Sustainability" was the first event for Master students, it took place in Nordhausen University of Applied Science. From 09.08 to 02.09.22, the Science Camp focused on diverse topics covered by the host regarding sustainability. Divided in bilingual interdisciplinary teams, projects were developed in diverse engineering areas such as: upcycling, hydrogen fueling stations, pyrolysis, electromobility and modelling of energy systems

OPTI+ (2023)
2nd Science Camp for Bachelor students
The second Bachelor Science Camp of the Alliance Thuringian Engineering took place at the EAH Jena. For two weeks, 20 Bachelor students from the Thuringian universities of the Alliance THÜR ING dealt together with the topics of automation and optimization. A time full of lectures, interdisciplinary work and talks from industry colleagues culminated with a final “Challenge” where the winners were celebrated with diplomas and prizes. Thank you to all the students whose energy and dynamics made this Science Camp come to live. See you next year!

ROBOBAU (2023)
2nd Science Camp for Master students
The second Master Science Camp of the Alliance Thuringian Engineering took place at the Schmalkalden University. For seven days, 25 Master students from the Thuringian universities of the Alliance THÜRING dealt together with the topics of robotics, 3D printing and civil engineering. The task for this edition consisted in the digital design of a modular bridge that could be 3D-printed and assembled with the aid of a robotic arm. Students worked in interdisciplinary teams to test their creativity and cleverness to organize and manage the task within the requested time frame. A final competition contrasted the different designs, the bridge’s load capacity and how success of bridge’s assembly.

Green2Smart (2024)
3rd Science Camp for Bachelor students
The third Science Camp of the Alliance Thuringian Engineering took place at the Fachhoschule Erfurt – University of Applied Sciences from 11.3.2024 to 20.03.2024. For seven days, 18 Bachelor students from the Thuringian universities of the Alliance THÜR ING worked in interdisciplinary teams to design and assemble a Green Mobile Wall, equipped with a monitoring system. For optimal supply of water and light, as well as the possibility to track the ambient conditions to which the plants where subjected (e.g., temperature and humidity), several sensors were installed. Teams tested their creativity and cleverness to organize and manage the task within the requested time frame, as well as to solve the challenges encountered.
After the event, the mobile walls will be distributed to the participating universities to be placed indoors. Refinement and finalization of the monitoring system will be continued in the following months. Finally, the measurements will be continued at the new location and evaluated comparatively.
The data collected will offer potential research opportunities for follow-up projects and theses. For interested students at the BUW an opportunity to know more about the results and the overall project will take place at the »summaery2024«.
We thank our colleagues from VE.PLANT GmbH who supported the developing of the system.

Biodiversity Monitoring (2024)
3rd Science Camp for Master students
The third Science Camp of the Alliance Thuringian Engineering took place at the Technische Universität Ilmenau from 23.9. to 2.10.2024. For eight days, more than 25 students from the Thuringian universities of the Alliance THÜR ING worked in interdisciplinary teams to study the basic of biodiversity monitoring, machine learning and signal analysis. With days full of dynamic lectures and excursions, each team chose a different project to work with. The options included an auto sufficient prototype of a bird recognition device implementing machine learning. Details about the lectures and schedule can be found here.
