Research and development play an increasingly important role at the Faculty of Engineering and, as a result, also influence our teaching. Consequently, our range of courses is constantly being revised and adapted to new requirements, which means that our teaching content is always up to date.
Our research activities cover a wide range of areas: some of them have been ongoing for a while, others are new and are being developed as a result of changing requirements in industry and society. Our research is application-oriented, often conducted within larger research networks, cross-linked, interdisciplinary and spans various locations. Exploring life’s big questions is easier when you work as a team! For more information on our research topics, see the overview in the section “Focal Areas” - happy browsing!
The Faculty of Engineering is equipped with about 50 laboratories and since we are interested in cooperation with international researchers we aim to give more and more insight in our work.

About 20 doctoral students are currently conducting research and teaching at our faculty; some are also pursuing their doctorates at external research institutes. At the moment, supervision is mainly provided in collaboration between our supervising colleagues and cooperating universities. However, the state of Hesse allows its Universities of Applied Sciences to apply for their own right to award doctorates if certain conditions are fulfilled. RheinMain University of Applied Sciences already has three doctoral research centers and a fourth one for engineering is under development.
