Further training

For us, professional development events are an important way of deepening and updating our professional skills. As an added bonus, they also offer the opportunity to get to know staff from other departments and thus expand one’s own network. Students can take part free of charge and will also receive a certificate of attendance.

Overview

Building Law Circle

The Building Law Forum takes place every October. At each event, it examines and analyses a specific area of conflict within building law from the differing perspectives of clients, contractors and experts. The next event will take place on 29 October 2026.

BI Forum

Every semester, graduates from our department present their successful final assignments, companies showcase interesting real-world projects, and lecturers present the latest developments in Applied Research. The next BI Forum will take place in November 2026.

Railway Bridges and Structural Engineering

Every two years, the symposium is held as a joint event organised by the VDEI Academy, Hochschule München and the Technical University of Munich. In addition to a wide range of specialist presentations and a trade exhibition focusing on railway bridge construction, parallel workshops will offer you the chance to explore specific applications and undertake practical exercises using the latest techniques.

Glass Construction Days

The Glass Construction Days are an integral part of the “Glass in Structural Engineering” series of events. Representatives from industry, public authorities and universities attend to find out about the latest developments in standardisation and research, as well as outstanding façade projects. The next conference will take place in May 2026, as usual, on Karlstraße at the HM.

Munich Construction Symposium

The Munich Construction Symposium is held regularly at our department. The organisers use case studies to demonstrate how climate-friendly construction can already be achieved today using currently available materials and methods. An application has been submitted to the Bavarian Chamber of Civil Engineers for the event to be recognised as a continuing professional development course.

Munich Geotechnical Engineers’ Circle

A joint event organised by the Technical University of Munich, the University of the German Armed Forces and Hochschule München for over 50 years. During the semester, lectures followed by discussions are held on topics from the fields of soil mechanics, foundation engineering, rock engineering, hydraulic engineering, engineering geology and environmental engineering. No registration is required and attendance is free of charge.

Munich Traffic Noise Protection Days (MVLT)

The Munich Traffic Noise Protection Days are organised by the DVLV, the VSVI, the Hochschule München, the VDEI Academy and the VDEI KIB Technical Committee. The event comprises a combination of a comprehensive exhibition and interesting presentations, tailored to political representatives, decision-makers in local authorities and building control authorities, as well as planners and interested members of the public. The next MVLT is scheduled for March 2026

Steel Construction Days

The next Steel Construction Days will take place on 23–24 April 2026 at the Karlstraße Campus for Civil Engineering. The organisers – the University of the German Armed Forces in Munich, the Technical University of Munich and Hochschule München – always attract a large number of speakers giving fascinating presentations.
