In­ter­na­tion­al Fac­ulty

As a faculty, we are part of an international research community. Our departments consist of scientists with an international profile. The internationalization strategy of the faculty is also reflected by the English-language courses offered in the Master's programs Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Systems Engineering, Optoelectronics und Photonics. The offer in the English-language study programs is continuously expanded by new international cooperation and the foreign mobility of our students and staff is increased. English-speaking graduates are also integrated into this international research community at an early stage. The faculty can also convince with excellent results in international rankings.

 

Young sci­ent­ists

For our faculty, challenging support of young scientists is a central element for excellent research: young scientists are seen as an essential driver for new, innovative approaches in both basic and applied research. The faculty accompanies young scientists intensively from their entry into the doctoral program through the postdoctoral qualification phase to the completion of a junior professorship or junior research group leadership, thus ensuring optimal support on this career path.

Re­search and trans­fer

Electrical engineering, computer science and mathematics: three institutes with over sixty professorships - we are diverse and interdisciplinary. Our research is forward-looking, internationally successful and attractive for both recognized and prospective scientists. Here, scientists can carry out successful research projects, find cooperations with companies and other scientific institutions, and attend graduate colleges. The numerous opportunities to fully develop scientifically and in an international framework are close to our hearts for continuous innovative development.

Our research and thus the knowledge we generate is highly relevant - its communication to society and transfer into applicability therefore traditionally play a major role in our faculty. Institutionally, we cooperate with the economy through participations in IFIM, C-LAB, s-lab, SICP, PC2, khdm, KET and in the network through it‘s OWL, Fraunhofer ENAS/ASE and Fraunhofer IEM.
