Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology RWTH Aachen University

Fakultät für Elektrotechnik und Informationstechnik (Rheinisch-Westfälische Technische Hochschule Aachen)

RWTH Aachen University

The Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology represents its subject in all its diversity. To bundle its activities, however, the faculty has established competence fields in research and teaching to which the institutes and chairs of the faculty can be assigned.

The fundamentals of electrical engineering and information technology are based on mathematical-scientific principles, but the applications take place in all engineering disciplines. The basis for our success is therefore the interdisciplinary cooperation, which takes place in particular with the departments of physics, computer science and material sciences, with the medical faculty and mechanical engineering of RWTH Aachen University as well as with associated and external research organizations.
