Active Teaching at TU Ilmenau

Since 2026, standing desks have been installed in several seminar rooms in the Humboldtbau. These desks can be adjusted to the appropriate height and can be used during classes to incorporate more movement into the daily academic routine. 

How does it work? Simply find a standing desk at the start of the seminar, adjust it to the right height, and spend the session in an active position. This gets your circulation going, improves blood flow, and boosts your ability to concentrate.
