We warmly invite children to attend four university lectures each semester held especially for them. The topics cover a very broad spectrum – history, natural science, politics, law, mechanical engineering, to name just a few. The professors and lecturers carefully tailor their talks to suit this special audience to ensure the enquiring young minds can enjoy, get drawn in and fully understand the lectures.
Since Professor Arnulf Deinzer launched the Kids’ University in 2005, some 6,000 children have had the chance to tackle all sorts of exciting questions in science and research in depth.
Each child is issued a Kids’ University student ID on their fist visit, which is then stamped before every lecture. Anyone who attends all four lectures in a semester even earns an authentic Kids’ University Completion Certificate at the last one.
There is currently no need to sign up for them. Children can also attend on a one-off basis. Admission is free of charge.
