About the university
With 260 institutes in nine faculties, RWTH
Aachen University is one of Europe's leading
institutions for science and research. Currently,
more than 42,000 students are enrolled in 130
academic programmes. More than 7,000 of
them are international students hailing from 130
different countries. The scientific education
students receive at RWTH Aachen University is
firmly rooted in real-world application. As a
result, our graduates are highly sought after by
businesses as trainees and for executive
positions. National and international rankings
show that our graduates have a high aptitude
for managing complex tasks, constructive
problem solving in teams, and taking on
leadership responsibilities. It should come as no
surprise, then, that one of every five board
members of German corporations is an alumnus
of RWTH Aachen University.
Work conducted in the research centres at
RWTH Aachen University is strongly oriented
towards the current needs of industry,
commerce, and the professions. This has
resulted in numerous innovations, patents, and
licences. The individual competence centres at
RWTH Aachen University collaborate very
effectively across departments and faculties in
interdisciplinary groups and forums, while still
maintaining a strong focus on their own
department specialisation. For instance, the
computer science and biology departments and even the social sciences - all have a clear
connection to the school's engineering focus.
This has been a crucial factor in motivating
multinational corporations such as Philips,
Microsoft, and Ford to locate their research
institutions in the Aachen region.
Excellence in teaching and research constitutes
the basis from which RWTH Aachen University
works with other leading institutions and
technical universities from around the world.
