Saturday Morning Physics
The “Saturday Morning Physics” lecture series has a long tradition in our Department. Through accessible lectures, our researchers introduce members of the public to physics topics from various fields.
The 2025–2026 winter semester will feature a series of lectures on the topic of “Physics and Medicine.” We will share more details about the program here soon.
Saturday Morning Physics takes place on several Saturdays during the winter semester at the Evangelische Pauluskirche in downtown Bochum. Admission is free and registration is not required. Anyone interested is warmly invited to simply drop by.
