Excursions
The House of Energy Markets and Finance conducts an excursion once a semester in order to give students an insight into the energy industry beyond the lecture hall. While destinations in the whole of Germany or neighbouring countries are visited as part of two-day tours, the day excursions concentrate on interesting destinations "on your doorstep". Since the summer semester of 2005, groups of up to 30 students have visited power plants, visited refinery sites, conducted guided tours of steel and aluminium plants or witnessed the enormous dimensions of a modern open-cast lignite mine.
