University of Stuttgart
University’s presentation
Visionary since 1829: The University of Stuttgart stands for exceptional, world-acclaimed research and first-class teaching in one of Europe’s most vibrant industrial areas. The university is a reliable employer, partner for technology transfer and focuses on interdisciplinarity.
The University of Stuttgart is one of the leading technically oriented universities in Germany with global significance. It sees itself as a center of university-based, non-university, and industrial research. Furthermore, it takes a role as a guarantor of research-based teaching, focused on quality and holism. The university promotes the transfer of knowledge and technologies to society in all their profile- and competence areas as well as their emerging fields. The „Stuttgarter Weg” (Stuttgart Way) means an interdisciplinary integration of engineering, natural sciences, humanities, management, economics and social sciences based on the fundamentals of cutting-edge research at a disciplinary level. Our vision is “Intelligent systems for a sustainable society”.
Two Clusters of Excellence, for which the university has applied for a grant as part of the Excellence Strategy to strengthen top-level research in Germany, have been awarded funding for seven years. The successful clusters are “Data-integrated simulation sciences” and “Intergrative Computational Design and Construction for Architecture “.
