Faculty of Engineering Science

We are curiously investigating the environment, biology or novel materials on an enormous spectrum. The research areas are on different materials, process engineering, energy technology as well as mechatronics and sensors.

Optimal conditions for research and teaching

Our engineering faculty is integrated into the nationwide unique concept of the TechnologieAllianzOberfranken (TAO) . The cooperation between the Universities of Bayreuth and Bamberg and the Universities of Applied Sciences Coburg and Hof bundles competencies in teaching, research and further education and uses valuable synergy effects. In this way we drive innovative projects with a wide variety of key topics, such as Energy and mobility with the cross-sectional topics of sensor technology, information technology, materials and the interface between people and technology. New focal points, such as the topic of "health" with the cross-sectional technologies of bioanalysis, food technologies and questions about the topic of water, are opened up. In Bayreuth run u. a. the threads in the Center for Materials Science and Technology and in the Center for Energy Technology come together.

"Learning by doing" at the highest level

Of course, the students also benefit from this collaboration. You will be involved in current engineering issues and can use an extensive range of additional exercises and tutorials. Well-equipped laboratories, small exercise groups and personal contact with the lecturers create optimal learning conditions.
