#TUMalchillen – Recreation during everyday university life

Do students recover during their everyday university life and which places do they go to do so? These and other questions are being examined in more detail in a current survey by the student health management TUM4Health sub-project "Sleep and Recovery“. The aim is to find out how students perceive and evaluate the current range of recreational locations on their respective TUM campuses and what things are important to them in terms of recreation during everyday university life. On the maps of the TUM campus locations, participants can also mark their favourite recreation place and present it in more detail. The marked favourite places will then be compiled to create the #TUMalchillen map, so that soon everyone will be able to find a place to take a break. Participation is possible until June 18, 2023: soscisurvey.de/TUMalchillen
