Faculty of Engineering and Computer Science
The Faculty of Engineering and Computer Science offers future-oriented study programs with a high degree of practical application in a wide range of engineering and computer science. In addition to training, practice-oriented research and technology transfer are very important to us. All members are offered free space for research and independent work, often supplemented by supportive support.
Interdisciplinary cooperation and worldwide cooperation give us valuable innovation impulses for teaching and research. This enables us to provide our students with practical knowledge and skills for working life and to promote the growth of the Hamburg metropolitan region.
