The Long Science Night 2023 at Humboldt University
Guided tours, lectures, games, experiments and much more provide an insight into the world of science and research
On June 17, 2023, Humboldt-Universität invites you to the Long Night of Sciences for more than 100 events on the Mitte campus, the Adlershof campus, the North Campus as well as in the Späth Arboretum and in the Humboldt Labor.
From 5 pm until midnight, visitors can experience the diversity of science: in interactive exhibits, experiments, games, hands-on activities, science presentations, lectures, and guided tours. A look behind the scenes of research that provides endless opportunities to discover connections and ask new questions.
Whether it is biology, chemistry, sociology or computer science – each science poses its own questions, develops appropriate methods and has its own perspective on the world. Together, science expands our collective knowledge and view of our environment. This diversity of points of view is the motto of the long Flag Night 2023.
An insight into the Humboldt University program
