Winterschool 2022 UpGrade Mobility

From 22 to 25 November 2022, we were able to hold the first Winter School of the KIT Graduate School UpGrade Mobility of the Mobility Systems Centre. During this time, international PhD students visited KIT and discussed different topics from the field of mobility together with the members of the graduate school, as well as various professors from KIT.
The school's programme started with a guided tour through different research laboratories of the Institute of Vehicle Systems Technology, the Institute of Product Engineering and the Karlsruhe Research Factory.
In addition, the presentation of one's own research subject and a subsequent discussion on the respective topic were part of the programme. In addition, there were various keynote speeches by professors of the Mobility Systems Centre from their individual departments. We would especially like to thank the scientific spokesperson of the graduate school, Prof. Dr. rer. nat Frank Gauterin, for his welcome speech. At various evening events, the discussions that had begun earlier in the day could be continued and extensive networking could be done in a relaxed environment.
On 24.11.2022, the programme was extended with a visit to the annual Carl Benz Memorial Lecture. Both the members of the graduate school and the international guests were able to follow the lectures of top-class guest speakers at KIT. The event was rounded off on 25.11.2022 with a guided tour of the newly opened Karlsruhe underground and a subsequent guided tour of Karlsruhe city centre.
