The Chair offers students a sound engineering education in casting technology, closely combining theory and practice. Our teaching combines classic fundamentals such as processes, materials, and sustainability with modern methods of simulation, data analysis, and testing.
In coordinated courses and accompanying laboratory exercises, the knowledge acquired is applied and deepened in practice. Particular emphasis is placed on the broad transferability of the tools and methods taught to other engineering disciplines—for example, through the use of CFD simulations for advanced fluid processes.
The close integration of research and teaching also gives rise to a wide range of current research topics in which students are involved as part of their student work and can establish contacts with industry at an early stage.
