This spring BEST Aachen is organising its first course and wants you to be a part of it! No doubt, you are a successful student at your university, who wants to find out more about the new developments in material sciences and their impact on our lives and the engineering world. 

 

Your wish to participate in a course on material sciences clearly underlines your foresight and perceptive intellect. In fact, it means you understand (better than others) that the key to recent achievements in almost all scientific fields lies in the properties of the used materials, which represent the skeleton of every new product. Moreover, since every engineer or scientist relies on materials, you already know that better performance usually means a better material.

 

The truth is, advanced materials have already changed the world we live in so much! Thanks to the progress in machining new prodigious materials, the people who once suffered terrible injuries now have the possibility to become Olympic athletes! Also, the recent results in electronics and technology have been made possible simply by improving the properties of already known materials. Taking a peak into the future, in a few years, transparent supersonic commercial airplanes will be up in the sky, which will allow us to travel from Berlin to Tokyo in just 2 hours! There are no limits to what we can achieve using new, powerful materials!

 

And why come to Aachen? Because:

- Germany is the cradle of new Technologies

- RWTH Aachen is one of Germany’s top engineering schools

- Aachen is full of rich history – the coronation city of Kaisers for centuries, and such a popular bathing resort, that Casanova and Peter the Great from Russia visited it

- Companies you’ll meet during the course are looking for international(ly minded) students just like yourself!

- Here’s where engineers work relentlessly fuelled by the best beer in the world

New is Always Better!
