Department of Engineering and Industrial Design

 

 

The Department of Engineering and Industrial Design (IWID) is known for providing a hands-on university education for engineers and (industrial) designers and specialises in application and technology transfer-oriented research and development. The structure of the IWID department, with its organisational combination of traditional engineering disciplines with design skills, particularly features the shared use of relevant resources and the possibilities of interdisciplinarity. This is unique in Germany!
