Junge Akademie at TUM is currently accepting applications for the class of 2022. The motto for the incoming cohort, starting Janaury 2022 will be 'Learning from Nature'.   Full news article...

TUM students are currently able to apply for online/virtual courses offered by TUM’s European partners and TUM itself. Don't miss the application deadline in August.

We’re lining up a triad of two start-up founders and a biomimicry practitioner from industry on Thursday 01 July at 5:15 pm. The event is open to all (registration for non-TUM participants requested) and will be in Englisch language. Details here.

If you're curious how biomimetics can be used for start-up creation, come and visit our virtual booth at the TUM Entepreneurship Day. We are available for video consultations at 11:30am, 1:30pm, and 3:30pm. Details.

Lecturers from TUM, Stuttgart, Erlangen-Nürnberg and Deggendorf will introduce students to biomimetics as part of the 12-day Ferienakademie (summer school) in September 2021. Apply by 02 May.

Debris represents a growing hazard to future missions unless it is removed from orbit. Any approach that solves this growing issue will need to start from first principles, since such an clean-up campaign has never been conceived in detail, before. First conceptual steps were recently undertaken with participation from individual students and TUM staff members.

The organisers are once more calling students and/or professionals to form teams and work on critical global challenges. As in the past, nature, with its 3.8bn year history of solving engineering challenges will be the repositor from which solutions will be drawn.

We strive to provide timely notice, as in this case project proposals will likely require consultations with companies and possibly also with biologists, thereby allowing more time for planning/drafting.

Biological species hold untold technical solutions! The seminar introduces students to biomimetic principles and lets them apply their learnings to real world challenges.

18 May 2020 | Projects submitted for TUM’s bioinspired idea competition show how technical solutions can benefit from models in nature.
