Civil and Environmental Engineering: Virtual 360° Tour for Study Orientation
Two 360° tours provide insights into the Civil Engineering and Environmental Engineering programmes.
This project was implemented in 2025 as part of “fuels – Future Learning Spaces ”.
The interactive 360° tour for study orientation presents the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the Technical University from a completely new perspective using 360° panoramas. The target group is prospective students, who are invited to explore the programmes in a playful way through the 360° tour.
In this visually engaging and interactive 360° environment, students can experience firsthand what awaits them in Civil and Environmental Engineering studies – and gain an initial insight into potential real-world applications of the field.
The 360° tour includes two exciting learning scenarios that provide a vivid introduction to the Civil Engineering and Environmental Engineering programmes.
In clearly defined virtual 360° tours, students gain insights into a real lecture setting, explore key locations within the department, and experience campus life in an engaging, playful format.
Both scenarios are accompanied by a relevant, real-life example from the department.
360° tour: First aid for the wandering fish
The Environmental Engineering scenario focuses on the topic of fish migration – a technical solution to help fish continue their journeys through rivers safely and without obstacles.
360° tour: Which bridge is the right one?
In the context of Civil Engineering, it involves the planning and construction of bridges, the challenge of determining the appropriate bridge type for various applications, and selecting suitable materials.
Both 360° experiences offer a practical and vivid way to closely engage with the content and research areas of the field, allowing prospective students to virtually explore the campus and laboratory facilities up close. Users immerse themselves in research projects and can step into the role of an engineer to gain a realistic picture of daily student life.
The advantages of these virtual 360° tours lie in their flexibility and interactive design: they allow users to explore complex topics at their own pace and delve deeper into the study programme.
