Founded in 1745, our university is the oldest technical institute in Germany and pertains to the German Institutes of Technology e. V. (TU9). With close to 20,000 students, 5,700 employees and 225 professors, Technische Universität Braunschweig is a mid-sized public university. Our 120 institutes are organized in 6 departments and provide 71 different Bachelor’s and Master’s degree programs. Our departments: 1. Carl-Friedrich Gauß Department: Mathematics, Computer Science, Business Sciences, Social Sciences 2. Department of Life Sciences: Biology, Chemistry, Pharmacy, Psychology 3. Department of Architecture, Civil Engineering and Environmental Sciences 4. Department of Mechanical Engineering 5. Department of Electrical Engineering, Information Technology and Physics 6. Department of Humanities and Educational Sciences Collegium Carolinum around the year 1746 welcome Our curricula are highly research-oriented. Consequently, teaching and leveraging world-class science go hand in hand. As a technical university, we also co-operate with numerous industry partners from around the world. Several new research centres facilitate this science-oriented educational process. The newly-established graduate academy GradTUBS provides tailor-made training courses for our doctoral students, as well as contacts to potential employers. The Braunschweig Research Region This research compilation lists scientists and their research interests in a compact form. If you look carefully, you will find that several colleagues from local research institutions are an integral part of our scientific network in Braunschweig, with our university as the integrative heart. The Braunschweig/Wolfsburg region is one the most active research regions in Europe, with more than 15,000 researchers living and working in the area. Many of the local research institutions listed below are linked to our university through cooperation agreements, facilitating joint research and the coordination human resources development. Special issue stamp on the occasion of the 250th birthday Our research partners: of our university Braunschweig University of Art Federal Research Institute for Rural Areas, Forestry and Fisheries (Thünen Institute) Federal Research Centre for Cultivated Plants (Julius Kühn Institute) Fraunhofer Institute for Wood Research (WKI) Fraunhofer Institute for Surface Engineering and Thin Films (IST) Georg Eckert Institute for International Textbook Research (GEI) Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) Leibniz Institute German Collection of Microorganisms and Cell Cultures (DSMZ) German Aeronautics and Space Research Centre (DLR) National Metrology Institute of Germany (PTB) Ostfalia – University of Applied Sciences Volkswagen AG and many other companies Our research strategy as part of our mission statement Integrating partners from regional research institutions into the university’s scientific activities is part of our overall strategy at TU Braunschweig. This strategy was developed starting in 2012 as part of a general concept and mission statement building process that involved all members of the university. Not only did we define our aims in research, teaching, governance and personal management; we also agreed on the values that we share at TU Braunschweig, such as a strong commitment to respecting people irrespective of where they come from, participative leadership, and transparency. Please have a look at our website to find out more about TU Braunschweig’s aims and values. The process also resulted in the definition of four strategic research fields: Mobility (automotive, aircraft, railway) City of the future Infections and therapeutics Metrology These focal areas of research are of course complemented by numerous other excellent scientific activities. Our research centres To facilitate the speedy and active implementation of our research strategy, various joint research centres have been established that host scientific working groups from Technische Universität Braunschweig and its partners under one roof. These centres provide a basis for joint research within the framework of publicly- and commercially-financed consortia. The following research centres have been established within the last few years or are currently under construction: BRICS – Braunschweig Integrated Centre of Systems Biology LENA – Laboratory for Emerging Nanometrology NFF – Automotive Research Centre Niedersachsen with Battery LabFactory (BLB) and Open Hybrid LabFactory (OHLF) NFL – Aeronautics Research Centre Niedersachsen PVZ – Center of Pharmaceutical Engineering In cooperation with Leibniz University Hannover, TU Braunschweig maintains the coastal research centre FZK – Forschungszentrum Küste And last but not least, our computer science and information technology activities are bundled in tubs.city – Centre for Informatics and Information Technology Our internationalisation strategy Research is international by nature. In order to attract excellent researchers from abroad and give our students and scientists the chance to study and do research outside of Germany, a new internationalisation strategy has been established. TU Braunschweig used the Internationalisation Audit offered by the German Rectors’ Conference (HRK) to organize and validate this process. Both our International Office and our Language Centre were restructured and equipped with the necessary resources to master the new challenges. Various new processes and measures were initiated and are already showing success – the percentage
