The workshop is designed to provide participants with a deep understanding of critical aspects of the product design process. We foster creative thinking, conceptualisation, user-centred design, and product functionality. Participants will gain practical skills in designing engineering products that are aesthetically appealing and user-friendly. Through a combination of theory and practical exercises, participants will gain a comprehensive insight into the…
The pupils of the primary school Angel Besednjak Maribor will collect and sort plastic and bring it to the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering. There, we will weigh it, add a catalyst (zeolite), seal it in a chamber and carry out the pyrolysis process. The pyrolysis oil will be collected in separate containers, which the students will take back to school,…
Creative workshops at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering of the University of Maribor for students from the Secondary School of Design Maribor, the Celje School Center/Secondary School for Service Activities and Logistics, and Ruše Grammar School. Through creative workshops, students will learn how to recycle polymer and natural waste materials, such as plastics and textiles, and how to reuse them.…
Participants will be introduced to the Software Quality and Testing Laboratory (SWQLAB) work, where research and development is carried out in the framework of national and international projects. The laboratory is open to students from colleges and universities and master’s and doctoral programmes. The main activities include monitoring and implementing software standards (ISO/IEC/IEEE), using open-source software for quality and testing,…
Topology is entering the big door of physics. In this popular science lecture, I will show that topology can be used to represent critical behaviours of nature.
Participants, especially teachers, will learn how CNC laser technology can enrich traditional classroom crafts. The discussion will focus on stimulating students’ critical thinking, creativity and research skills with the help of modern technology. The focus will be on integrating science, technology and the arts as well as promoting open knowledge and gender balance.
The workshops are designed to raise awareness about energy technologies for cleaner energy production. Through practical exercises, students will explore how advanced technologies work, learn valuable skills and discover how each individual can contribute to more efficient energy use.
