Why not get acquainted with the university in childhood? The Children's University makes it possible. In lectures lasting one hour on average, professors answer exciting knowledge questions. Since 2007/2008, both universities offer one or two lectures each semester for children between the ages 8-12.
Stuttgart Kids' University for the summer semester 2025
Cool clothes for hot buildings
Prof. Christina Eisenbarth
HydroSKIN Technologie-Transfer-Initiative GmbH
University of Stuttgart
Event language: German
Our planet is running a fever: it's getting warmer and warmer. People who live in the city are feeling this most of all. When the sun shines, houses and streets often get so hot that you can fry fried eggs on them.
But how can we make our cities cooler and more liveable? Prof. Christina Eisenbarth gets to the bottom of this question and shows how houses can be equipped with “cool clothes” - with special fabrics that cool like a wet T-shirt in summer. She explains exactly how this works in the children's lecture.
And afterwards, on Science Day, you will have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the world of construction at various stands and hands-on stations.
