Offers for pupils and teachers
The Schmalkalden University campus regularly hosts events for pupils or entire school classes. Teachers can also register their classes for an individual campus tour. This gives pupils an insight into student life, the university's modern facilities and the opportunity to ask students questions.

The focus is on enthusiasm and the desire to find out more. Whether it's a project for Jugend forscht or a working group - we offer competent support.
Youth research
Schmalkalden University of Applied Sciences is a long-standing organizer of the regional "Jugend forscht" competition in southwest Thuringia. Young people with a passion for STEM can submit a project for "Jugend forscht" or "Schüler experimentieren" each year as part of the competition.
World Robot Olympiad
The World Robot Olympiad (WRO) is an international robotics competition for children and young people aged 8 - 19. Schmalkalden University of Applied Sciences will host the regional competition in the "Future Innovators" category every year from 2023. This makes Schmalkalden University of Applied Sciences the second location for the annual regional competitions in eastern Germany alongside Chemnitz.

The Cellarius University Library cooperates with vocational training centers and grammar schools with the aim of introducing pupils to researching scientific literature. Students from the 10th grade onwards learn how and where to find current literature for their seminar papers by means of practical exercises.

The taster course offers pupils and prospective students their first authentic insights into teaching and everyday student life at our university. In this way, they can find out which degree courses they particularly like and might be suitable for them. Participation is aimed at pupils in years 10 to 13.
University Information Day
With the University Information Day, we offer prospective students the opportunity to explore our modern campus on site and talk to students and professors. The program for our University Information Day follows some time before the event, which usually takes place once a year in June.
