TUM SustainabilityDay 2024: A festival of inspiration and innovation (June 24)

🌱 TUM Sustainability Day, am 12 Juni 2024

"We walk the talk" - TUM lives sustainability

Researching sustainability is not enough - you also have to live it.
On June 12, 2024, the Technical University of Munich set an example with the Sustainability Day a strong signal: The entire TUM community showed how it is actively contributing to a sustainable future with ideas, research and projects.

🚗 Focus on mobility: the future is on the move

MCube curated the mobility area and, together with strong partners, presented forward-looking projects in the Mobility Hof Garching. Included:

  • TUM Hyperloop
  • STEAM bus for education & transformation
  • TUfast Eco Team with lightweight electric vehicle
  • EDGAR - the autonomous shuttle of the future

🧠 Practice makes perfect: young explorers on tour

The 3rd grade of an elementary school explored exciting mobility innovations with Oliver May-Beckmann - and were visibly impressed. A day that not only showed technology, but also visions of the future.

🕶️ Virtual mobility & playful urban planning

  • VR experience in the STEAM bus: a journey into the public transport of tomorrow
  • Road construction kit at the aqt project: participants design their dream road
  • Bolt Little Big Carpet: Experience urban design in a playful way
  • Curtain of wishes: Capturing ideas for the future of mobility

📊 Simulation & strategy: data-based mobility

TUM-Präsident Prof. Dr. Thomas F. Hofmann besuchte den DatSim-Mobilitätstisch, der auf Basis realer Daten die Verkehrsplanung von morgen simuliert. Im Gespräch mit Markus Mohl, Leiter des Digitalen Zwillings Münchens, wurde klar: Datengetriebene Entscheidungen sind der Schlüssel zur smarten Mobilität.

🚀 Nico Rosberg Challenge: start-up spirit for sustainability

Zeitgleich entwickelten 230 Studierende in der Nico Rosberg Challenge nachhaltige Geschäftsmodelle.
🌟 Highlight: ParkBuddys - an innovative system for reducing parking search traffic.

💬 Thank you & outlook

A heartfelt thank you to all those involved for their commitment, their ideas and their curiosity. The TUM Sustainability Day 2024 was more than just an event - it was a living laboratory for change. We look forward to the road ahead - and the innovations that will emerge from it.
