Applied Research
With our research focus areas and our technology transfer centres outside the university locations, we network research, companies and society. In this way, we promote the sustainable development and future viability of the region and enable our students to participate in the current state of technology and science. The University currently focuses on three key research areas: ‘Energy technology and energy efficiency’, ‘People and mobility’ and ‘Digital and intelligent systems’. THWS is also expanding its research in the key areas of robotics, artificial intelligence and hydrogen technology.
At the Graduate School „Sustainable and Intelligent Systems“, young researchers with a Master's degree can obtain a doctorate in engineering.
