While the expert jury evaluated the young researchers’ results following the presentation round, the young scientists had the opportunity to explore the research conducted at the Fraunhofer institutes.

After the lunch break, the exhibits were presented to the public, followed by the award ceremony. We warmly congratulate this year’s winners! An overview of the award-winning projects is available as a PDF download in the attachment. Particularly pleasing: three projects from the “Schüler experimentieren” (Students Experiment) category qualified for the Hessen state competition in Kassel, and four projects from the “Jugend forscht” category qualified for the Hessen state competition in Darmstadt (hosted by Merck).
