They design, build and test rockets alongside their studies, largely on their own initiative. The student organisation WARR combines practical engineering with a network that extends into Germany’s space industry.

WARR stands for *Wissenschaftliche Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Raketentechnik und Raumfahrt* (Scientific Working Group for Rocketry and Spaceflight). It is an independent registered association at the Technical University of Munich (TUM). More than 600 members are involved in various technical fields, with over half working on rocketry projects. The teams organise their projects themselves, from technical decisions and manufacturing to financing, administration and launch campaigns. Most of the work is voluntary and carried out alongside their studies.
