The department has approximately 100 employees and conducts
undergraduate education, postgraduate (doctoral) education, and research in technical and applied subject areas within the Faculty of Science and Technology. We actively collaborate with companies and organizations.
The department offers courses ranging from introductory level to master's level across five main subject areas (civil engineering, electronics, energy engineering, mechanical engineering, and media technology).
Courses are primarily delivered within a variety of programs and educational tracks, including Bachelor of Science in Engineering programs, Master of Science in Engineering programs, science programs, teacher education programs, university diploma programs, and master's programs, as well as vocational higher education (KY) programs, commissioned education for industry, distance learning, and standalone courses. In total, this corresponds to approximately 650 full-time equivalent students.
The research and doctoral education are focused on applied physics, applied electronics with specialization in control engineering, signal processing or biomedical technology, as well as energy technology with specialization in thermal process chemistry or energy efficiency, ranging from applied research to fundamental research.
Two research centers are also affiliated with the department's research: the Centre for Sustainable Production of Cement and Burnt Lime, and the Centre for Medical Technology and Physics (CMTF). Collaboration with companies and organizations is important in these
