The University of Applied Sciences Brandenburg (THB) leads and is actively involved in scientific and applied research. The current research activities are geared towards regional needs and focus on future challenges with high relevance. They are reflected in the academic offer at the university and profit from state-of-the-art laboratory equipment and facilities.
A wide range of research takes place at the three departments at THB, with numerous areas of expertise and transfer potentials:
On a strategic level, the THB also conducts research in three major areas beyond the department boundaries. These research areas are approached from an interdisciplinary perspective, allowing to address their complexity and underscoring their relevance and important as future key challenges.
Interdisciplinary Security Research
This research field combines current research topics such as data protection, preventive/reactive IT security, reliability of systems and processes, as well as security aspects of medicine, aerospace, microelectronics and technical equipment based on technical, organisational and economic methods.
Energy and Resource Efficiency
The research on "Energy and Resource Efficiency" is broadly structured, and pursues an interdisciplinary and holistic approach. The analysis, development, design and optimisation of energy and resource efficient processes and products is at its forefront.
Digital Transformation
The research on "Digital Transformation" investigates processes and effects, the implementation, operation, use and evaluation of digital technologies, management approaches and business models within and between companies, administrations and organisations.
The EU Competence Network of Brandenburg Universities (EUK) is a network of universities and universities of applied sciences in the German Federal State of Brandenburg. It fosters the participation of Brandenburg universities in research programs funded by the European Union.
The objective of the EUK is to provide a professional and comprehensive service for researchers when applying for or conducting EU-funded research projects. To this end, knowledge and expertise in advising will be expanded in the EUK.
The EUK is decentrally organised and is coordinated by Eberswalde University for Sustainable Development.
