The Technische Hochschule Mittelhessen (THM) presented its current range of services for teaching and student support to a broad professional audience. Numerous representatives were present at #EduNext25 at Goethe University Frankfurt to provide information on topics such as learning projects, accessibility in studies, and AI in teaching, as well as to demonstrate the VR speech trainer.

Demand was particularly high for this virtual reality offering, as it allowed interested participants to practice successfully reducing their nervousness before a presentation. The current second-place winner of the Hessian Teaching Award, Prof. Dr. Benjamin Löhr from the Department of Economics, presented his award-winning blended learning project, "International Business Simulation – An Intercultural and Interdisciplinary Approach.".

The mission:me programme aims to spark students' interest in studying at THM . This interactive programme is designed for young people from the 11th grade onward who are interested in STEM subjects: mathematics, computer science, natural sciences, and technology. Julius Jay Butler explained to interested parties at #EduNext25 that participants will explore the campus, attend lectures and labs, and talk to current students.

The presence of THM at the conference was complemented by a joint presentation by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Armin Wagenknecht and the HessenHub sub-project coordinator Daniela Kamutzki on the AI ​​maturity model of THM , as well as by a welcoming speech by THMVice President Prof. Dr. Stephanie Hanrath, who is responsible for the QuiS and HessenHub projects at THM .

The conference was held in cooperation with the HessenHub (Network Digital University Hesse) and QuiS (Quality in Studies and Teaching in Hesse) projects and was funded by the Hessian Ministry of Science and Research, Arts and Culture (HMWK). A total of 300 participants, including Minister Timon Gremmels, attended the event at Goethe University.
