On 17 June 2025, BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg received the family-friendly university audit certificate for the third time.
In June, BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg was recognised for the third time for its work and study environment that promotes compatibility. It was one of 306 organisations to receive the family-friendly university audit certificate at a public award ceremony.
The family-friendly university audit certificate is a seal of quality for a strategically organised work-life balance policy. The BTU has thus repeatedly secured special recognition for its long-standing, sustainable and strategically anchored organisation of family-friendly working and study conditions.

Summer holidays and it's raining? No problem - try our full-body workout with children for a change!
The video shows examples of exercises for a full-body workout with young children. Each exercise serves as inspiration and must be individually adapted to the age of your child and your own physical condition. If certain exercises are not feasible for you due to previous illnesses or operations, these can also be modified or omitted completely. All exercises are also possible without a child and form a good basis for home training. Fun during training and sore muscles the next day are expressly encouraged!
