Life

academic career

Heinrich Nipper attended the secondary school in Bremen. After graduating from high school, he studied iron and steel engineering at RWTH Aachen University from 1920 to 1924 . At the beginning of his studies he became a member of the Corps Montania Aachen. In 1928 he became a Dr.-Ing. With Eugen Piwowarsky . PhD. In May of the following year he qualified as a professor in foundry and became a private lecturer for molding materials and auxiliary materials at the RWTH foundry. In January 1933, Nipper received a teaching position for metal foundry, joined the NSDAP in the same year and was appointed associate professor in November 1934. Working on light metal casting alloys, he was appointed to the newly created chair for metal casting and the entire technology of foundry at RWTH in October 1935.

From 1933 to 1936 Nipper was head of the teaching staff at the TH Aachen and 1935/36 Aachener Lecturer Association Leader . From 1934 he worked temporarily as a consultant for the Reich Ministry of Education , for which he was given a leave of absence from his actual teaching activity for a few weeks in 1935.
