In 2001, an American exchange student brought the idea of the Technology Student Association to the Wilhelm Ostwald School in Leipzig. The idea met with great interest in our mathematically and scientifically oriented school. Shortly afterward, the Ostwald TSA e.V. and thus the first German chapter of the Technology Student Association were founded at our school.
Learning to Lead in a technical world
Today, Ostwald TSA is the only German chapter of the Technology Student Association (TSA) which is a US-American student organization with over 250,000 participants who are interested and engaged in science and technology. They participate in interdisciplinary competitions teaching them essential social and technological skills. TSA is being supported by teachers, parents and business leaders who focus on the young generation's education.

Thanks to our sponsors we were able to fund ourselves and participate in every National Conference in the USA since then. OstwaldTSA has become an integral part of our school and our chapter is proud to look back on a great history. Thanks to the skills acquired through the TSA, our members are also very successfully taking part in competitions in Germany.
