Focus
Student Research Centers
The student research centres in Thuringia offer children and young people space to discover, invent and explore.
Thuringian student research centres focus on independent research. The network includes a variety of student research centres with different thematic focuses and innovative formats.
They are places for children and young people who are enthusiastic about mathematics, computer science, natural sciences and technology (STEM). Here they can carry out their own projects and research, invent and experiment themselves.
The locations offer appropriate equipment and support for this. In addition, they are also a meeting place for young researchers.
In Thuringia’s student research centres, young talents can expect a wide range of opportunities:
- guided experiments, accompanied research or the independent examination of self-selected questions
- Support in participating in competitions such as the Physics Olympiad, GYPT or Jugend forscht – we will make you fit for the competition, let you use our laboratories and measuring tracks and arrange extracurricular supervisors
- Free rental of experiment boxes, from grade 5 to STEM educators in Thuringia
This gives all children and young people – regardless of the type of school – the opportunity to pursue their joy of discovering, exploring and inventing in the immediate vicinity of their school or place of residence.
