The "Day of Biology" is an information event organized by the biology department for interested students from the twelfth grade onwards from all Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland grammar schools and integrated comprehensive schools. A wide range of lectures and workshops offer the opportunity to gain an insight into the fascinating science and exciting study of biology. Visits to lecture halls, practical rooms and laboratories at RPTU in Kaiserslautern provide a first impression of student life.
