WinterSchool 2026 will be a creative think tank where you can develop concepts and implement initial prototypes. You will have 5 creative days to do this.
We want to develop visions for the future of our region together with you, students, creatives and regional companies. This is all about the key question "What products and services will the city of the future need in rural areas?"
You will develop your idea in mixed teams based on current developments or with your own vision. You are free to choose the topic and focus. As so much freedom can sometimes be a bit limiting, here are a few possible topics:
Ideas thrive on a change of perspective and a creative atmosphere. That's why we have reserved various rooms at the university: the CELSIUZ, the DLR_School_Lab and the MakerSpace. So you can not only think through your idea, but also bring it to life. The WinterSchool will only really come to life through you and your ideas.
