The research strength of the University of Applied Sciences of Regensburg lies in its joint projects, ranging from materials science research and robot sensor technology to adult education and conflict research, with partners in industry and social services. Professors also remain in continuous touch with practice through a large number of bilateral contacts. The Institute of Applied Research and Partnership with Industry (IAFW) serves as the official coordination centre for research projects and knowledge and skills transfer activities.

 

All departments contribute to the IAFW. About 35% of professors are involved in a large number of projects. Many well-known companies have confidence in the problem-solving skills of the University of Applied Science. It allows them to access to its modern, well-equipped laboratories. The teaching hospital of the University of Regensburg also makes use of the engineering expertise of the University of Applied Sciences.

 

One particular focus is on sensors. The new chair and its support staff, endowed by the Scheubeck-Jansen Foundation developped a centre of competence which is a focal point in Regensburg's plans for a technology park.

 

Regensburg University of Applied Sciences is a valued partner for large, small and medium companies. Projects aimed at solving problems of industry often arise from working groups, but many also arise out of students' coursework and final projects. Companies in turn offer prizes and make their equipment available to the students.
