Moving into new house

30.05.2011 -  

A total of 2241 m2 office space and 44 highly modern research laboratories, workshops and seminar rooms are now available for scientists and students. The new building will improve the teaching and research conditions at the University substantially, as laboratories and offices of the process engineers inter alia were temporary located at the Max-Planck- Institute.

Rector Prof. Dr. Klaus-Erich Pollmann, Cultural Affairs Minister Prof. Birgitta Wolff, the Minister for State Development and Transport, Dr. Karl-Heinz Daehre, and Mayor Dr. Lutz Trümper emphasized the importance of the new building for science in Magdeburg.

The facility was named after the father and son Carnot, who as engineers and scientists founded thermodynamics and worked in Magdeburg. Cultural Affairs Minister Wolff stressed that the Carnots also stood for interdisciplinary and thus the namesake was excellent.

Professor Jürgen Thomas thanked the state government and taxpayers for financing the house, and used the opportunity to invite the construction company to campus Days in May. "Here in our new building, we will show you how nice it is to study Process and Systems Engineering in Magdeburg." After these words of Prof. Thomas, the visitors met in the foyer of the new Carnot-building with champagne and used the opportunity to visit a second motion laboratory.
