For companies and Faculty 8 alumni

Welcome to the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Mechatronics!

For interested companies

We have maintained close relationships with companies for decades and are constantly expanding our network. All our degree programmes include one or more projects with topics from real professional practice. Many of our project and final theses take place in companies. Our R&D projects also usually involve cooperation with companies.
This results in a variety of opportunities for cooperation between our faculty and ... perhaps you too?

 

For Faculty 8 alumni

The Faculty for Mechanical Engineering and Mechatronics has been training engineers for over 100 years. Thousands of students got their degrees and consequently laid the foundations for their career here. We would like to strengthen the feeling of solidarity between our alumni as well as their connections with our faculty, because this feeling of togetherness is the inspiration for teaching that has its finger on the pulse and gives the motivation for lifelong learning. After all, you're an alumnus for life.

Opportunities for cooperation with our faculty

Research & Development

Are you planning a new development? Do you have an idea for an innovation? Do you want to optimize designs, processes or production sequences? We are looking for competent partners at our department and for custom-fit solutions for your problem.
We support you in working on topics that could be carried out as project or final theses, in joint R&D projects and in applying for and carrying out publicly funded projects.
