Events

The science festival is a yearly recurring national event. It offers the public, kids and adults alike, the opportunity to discover todays science and participate, free of charge, in numerous scientific activities!

ITI HiFunMat participated with the stand ‘Materials of the futur’ at the André Malraux Library in Strasbourg. The visitors were invited to go into the world of cutting-edge functional materials inspired by nature. A quiz game on materials utilized in health, energy, and the environment was proposed to participants as well as manipulation samples under a microscope.

This year we were particularly happy to see participants of all ages and especially very young girls and boys who are already ready to take over!

ITI HiFunMat participated with the stand ‘Materials of the futur’ on the Cronenbourg campus. Here we invited visitors to come and travel to the heart of innovative functional materials inspired by nature. They would discover the heart of materials used in health, energy and the environment through amazing microscopy images, and test whether they were able to recognize which materials belongs to with microscopic images. They could then check the answers for themselves by placing some of the materials directly under the microscope.

In Mulhouse, HiFunMat members participated in the science festival on the stand of the IS2M, which had the theme "Fabrication additive et polymères". Here the public could discover all about 3D printing  and 3D pens, on one hand, and porous zeolithes materials for decontamination on the other hand.

We value science education highly and therefore we applaud the jardin des sciences that proposes, all year long, projects in elementary schools, middle schools and high schools to promote science.

This year we aim, with the help of the jardin des sciences, to create a project to participate in their scholarly events. More news at the start of the academic year 2022-2023!
