Are you interested in the current sustainability projects at TU Ilmenau? Or do you have ideas for initiatives that could make our university even more sustainable in areas such as teaching, research, student activities, and governance?
Then we warmly invite you to our Sustainability Café!
Prof. Jens Wolling, a member of the Sustainability Task Group, will provide an overview of the ongoing sustainability projects at TU Ilmenau. Afterwards, we would like to discuss how we can all contribute to the various initiatives on campus.
Enjoy Fair Trade coffee, cookies, and sustainable muffins while networking in a relaxed atmosphere and exchanging ideas about sustainable projects.
We look forward to seeing you and having inspiring discussions about sustainability!
Clothes Swap Party, 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM, at Alte Försterei on Wetzlarerplatz, Ilmenau
Every year, millions of tons of clothing are produced, worn, and discarded. So instead of buying new fashion, let's swap our old treasures and make a statement for sustainability together!
Join our Clothes Swap Party and discover new favorite items without straining your wallet or the environment. Bring well-preserved clothing that you no longer wear and exchange it for other great pieces.
Note: The number of participants is limited! If you are interested in participating, please register by October 23 at the latest via email at mira.rochyadi-reetz@tu-ilmenau.de.
We look forward to an evening filled with fashion, sustainability, and good spirits!

Spring Bulb Festival, 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM on Ehrenberg Meadow
Early bloomers are the first important source of food for bees and other insects in early spring. That's why we are planting spring bulbs this autumn. Join us at the 1st Spring Bulb Festival at TU Ilmenau and help us plant the TU Ilmenau lettering. Not only are we contributing to the biodiversity on our campus, but we will also enjoy the first splashes of color early next year.
The Spring Bulb Festival is suitable for people of all ages and welcomes both individuals and groups or families to spend an unforgettable day together.
Food and refreshments will also be provided – there will be a selection of snacks to ensure we all have a pleasant and cozy afternoon together.
Second-Hand Fashion Corner, 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM in the Humboldtbau
Discover trendy second-hand fashion in our Second-Hand Fashion Corner! On this day, a selection of clothing that we have already collected will be available to you.
Browse to your heart's content and find new favorite pieces without harming the environment or your wallet, and take your favorites home for free. It's the perfect opportunity to sustainably renew your wardrobe and discover unique fashion. Come by and let yourself be inspired!
Workshops and Games, 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM in the Humboldtbau
In addition to planting bulbs, we offer various workshops that deal with topics such as sustainability, nature, and DIY projects. Dive into exciting activities and learn practical tips and tricks for a sustainable everyday life.
Our interactive games are fun and also provide educational insights into the importance of biodiversity and environmental ecology. Be part of it, expand your knowledge, and enjoy our diverse offerings in a relaxed atmosphere!
The workshops and games are designed to provide appealing and educational experiences for participants of all age groups, whether as an individual, family, or in groups.
