Research & Transfer

Application-oriented research and development form the foundation of our excellent teaching. That is why we are involved in a wide range of research projects—whether publicly funded or conducted in direct collaboration with the regional business community.

Our focus is on six key research areas:

• Smart Mobility
• Sustainable Energy
• Maritime Systems
• Digital Transformation and AI
• Sustainable Value Creation
• Social Inclusion

HAW Kiel works closely with the regional business community, particularly with small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

Here you will find a selection of the HAW’s current publicly funded projects and those of our Center for Research and Development (F&E GmbH). We are happy to serve as a competent project partner and offer a wide range of collaboration opportunities for businesses. We provide personalized counselling.

The contact person for technology and knowledge transfer is Dr. Andreas Borchardt.
