Curious about the mysterious Ecotron Hasselt University?

 

Through team-based assignments, participants unravel the 'how' and 'why' of this research facility. The Ecotron is a unique, high-tech research installation where UHasselt scientists study the effects of climate change on biodiversity. By working in groups, students independently discover the 'how' and 'why' of this research installation. Topics covered include the carbon cycle, ecosystems and ecosystem services, biodiversity, climate, and research methods.

 

After presenting their group work, students receive a guided tour of the Ecotron. The entire activity is led by a Ranger from the National Park, specially trained by UHasselt. The Ecotron is part of the Field Research Centre, UHasselt's scientific hub for international top-level research on biodiversity and climate in the Hoge Kempen National Park. Following the tour, the Ranger will take you for a behind-the-scenes visit.

 

The Ecotron Mystery is suitable for both secondary school students and adult groups who want to participate as a team. As this is an outdoor activity, please wear appropriate footwear and clothing.

 

This activity is part of UHasselt's offer for teachers and is provided free of charge to schools with support from Hasselt University.
