society, where they help solve pressing issues
and answer unasked questions.
To achieve this, we collaborate closely with
other universities, scientific institutes, social
organizations, government and industry. Together,
we translate our research findings into successful
innovations and turn our knowledge into societal
value through knowledge valorization. We strengthen
the knowledge-intensive industry by providing young
academic engineers and by generating new business.
We combine top-notch fundamental research with
an application-oriented educational approach,
characterized by frequent and intensive student-
teacher interaction. This is all part of a tight-knit,
small-scale community consisting of more than
80 nationalities, where everyone feels welcome and
where the well-being of students and staff matters.
Our university connects students, researchers
and entrepreneurs. Because we believe innovation
starts with people, not with technology. It is our
people who make our university into the place
where innovation starts and people matter.
