Call for Photographs
Submission deadline: 21 September 2026
Researchers from all disciplines are invited to enter the ‘Research Perspectives’ photography competition at any time, and no later than 21 September 2026.
In the lab, at the test bench or in the field – no matter where or what you’re researching: images of research are created that are usually only visible to the researchers themselves.
Share this unique perspective with others and take part in our photo competition: send us a picture from your research, from your everyday life as a scientist or PhD student.
The best entries will be selected by a jury and awarded prizes by the Research Department.
How to enter?
Send your digital image by 21 September 2026 to einblicke[at]htwk-leipzig.de.

- The image must be suitable for printing (resolution of at least 300 dpi).
- Only one image per person may be submitted.
- A meaningful title and a brief description of the research perspective are required.
- The authors of the image must be named.
