Research across the departments

Research and teaching go hand in hand at FHV

Alongside the research centres and research groups, the departments are also actively involved in research and development projects. Together, they generate new knowledge and develop practical solutions to the challenges of tomorrow. This close collaboration strengthens knowledge transfer between research, teaching and practice and contributes to addressing current issues in the fields of engineering and technology, business, design and social & health in a sustainable way.

The departments contribute their subject-specific expertise, close links to professional practice, and current issues arising from teaching and society to research projects. Working together with researchers from the research centres and research groups, they develop innovative approaches and solutions that connect academic knowledge with tangible benefits for businesses, organisations and the region.

The projects below provide an insight into the diverse research activities of the departments and demonstrate how closely these are connected to FHV's overall research portfolio.
