The autumn academy is an offer from the excellence cluster REBIRTH and the QUEST-Leibniz-Researchschool in cooperation with the Lower Saxony Ministry of the Arts and Education for teachers in STEM-subjects. The aim of the autumn academy is to provide teachers with ideas for their lessons and thus, in the long term, to get pupils excited about science and encourage them to study the so-called STEM subjects (STEM = science, technology, engineering and mathematics).
