How do trees talk? What happens when we move? How are bridges built? Why do I resemble my parents? How does the heart work? These and many other issues will be covered by the 10th KIT Children’s University of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). The series of presentations for young researchers aged from 8 to 12 will take place from August 3 to 24, 2012. The program includes nine presentations and 15 workshops. Advanced sale of tickets for the presentations will start on July 16.

 

In close partnership with society, KIT develops solutions for urgent challenges – from climate change, energy transition and sustainable use of natural resources to artificial intelligence, sovereignty and an aging population. As The University in the Helmholtz Association, KIT unites scientific excellence from insight to application-driven research under one roof – and is thus in a unique position to drive this transformation. As a University of Excellence, KIT offers its more than 10,000 employees and 22,800 students outstanding opportunities to shape a sustainable and resilient future. KIT – Science for Impact.
