Airport Campus at BER

Behind the scenes for students

On November 11, 2025, nearly 50 students from various fields of study at universities in Berlin and Brandenburg gathered at BER Airport for the 69th event in the airport's own lecture series, “Airport Campus.” After a welcome by Christian Franzke, Regional Affairs Officer at Flughafen Berlin Brandenburg GmbH, Paul Hoppe, an expert in innovation management, provided exciting insights into the use of innovations in airport operations. In his presentation, he introduced the systems and technologies behind passenger handling at BER – including self-service offerings, the BER Runway, and BER Biometrics – and showed how these innovations ensure efficient processes and an improved passenger experience.

Afterwards, the students had the opportunity to get to know BER during a guided tour, take a look at the apron from the visitor terrace, and chat with each other during the concluding get-together.
