Overview

The trip

From BMW's production lines to the Eiffel Tower's ironwork, this trip follows engineering across Germany and France.

In Munich and Stuttgart, students visit the Technical University of Munich and explore how BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Porsche take an idea from concept to production. A visit to Munich's Science Museum grounds the trip in hands-on experimentation, and a ride on Germany's high-speed rail network gives students a working example of transport engineering in practice. At the Allianz Arena, students study the engineering behind its retractable roof and inflatable façade panels, a real case in structural design, not a stadium tour.

In Paris, the trip continues with engineering landmarks: the Eiffel Tower's ironwork, and the Aerospace Museum's collection, including the Concorde, where students examine the engineering of supersonic flight.

Learning outcomes

What students gain

Students will be able to:

  • Explain how an engineering concept moves from lab research to a manufactured product, using what they've seen at BMW, Mercedes-Benz or Porsche
  • Connect a university engineering pathway, such as the Technical University of Munich, to their own further study options
  • Describe the structural engineering behind landmarks such as the Allianz Arena and the Eiffel Tower
  • Explain the engineering challenges of supersonic flight, using the Concorde as a case study
