Congratulations to three of our former students who won the Hamburg Aviation Young Talent Award yesterday, recognizing their excellent work in their final thesis! Lukas Thiesen won second place in the 𝘉𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘰𝘳'𝘴 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘴 category. His thesis focused on integrating hydrogen tanks into the fuselage, with a special emphasis on safety aspects such as potential rotor bursts and crashworthiness. Antonia Münchenbach won first place in the 𝘚𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘈𝘷𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 category. Her bachelor's thesis was about the routing of hydrogen pipes within the aircraft, considering interdependencies with other systems like hydraulic and electrical systems. Kai Beschorner won second place in the 𝘔𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳'𝘴 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘴 category. He developed a preliminary method for designing and evaluating a hybrid power train for a gas turbine. These awards serve as motivation for all students, demonstrating that your thesis work is highly valued and appreciated by the community. A big thank you to all sponsors and to Hamburg Aviation for organizing this event! hashtag#TUHH hashtag#FST hashtag#HamburgAviation hashtag#YoungTalentAward

The new semester SoSe25 officially kicked off this week on April 1st. We wish all our students a great start, full of new knowledge, exciting projects, and valuable experiences. Whether you’re diving into advanced research, exploring new fields, or collaborating with peers, we encourage you to make the most of the opportunities ahead. Let’s make SoSe25 a productive and rewarding experience for everyone! Wishing you all success in your studies!

Students in the Aeronautics master’s program at hashtag#TUHH participate in a Systems Engineering Development Project (hashtag#SEP), where they work in teams on current and relevant research topics such as hydrogen-powered aircraft, foldable wings, air taxis, or collaborative aircraft design. This week we organized an internal conference, which marks the end of the current SEP. This conference provides students with the opportunity to present their results and insights to fellow students, professors, and research associates from the involved institutes. This semester, the research institutes hashtag#ILT (Institute for Air Transportation Systems) and hashtag#FST were part of the SEP. We would like to especially thank all students for their very interesting presentations, engaging live demonstrations, and valuable discussions. We are confident that the past four months have been a great learning experience for you!
