Successful CAMPUSTAG
On Saturday, June 8, 2024, the CAMPUSTAG took place at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. Prospective students had the opportunity to obtain detailed explanations about individual degree programs and were supported in their study orientation and decision-making process. The Institute for Structural Analysis was also present, providing information on teaching and research in the field of structural analysis and structural mechanics. At the joint information pavilion with the student organization "Fachschaft Bau", prospective students built a bridge model and viewed it in a computer simulation.
