Fachhochschule Aachen / Aachen University of Applied Sciences (AcUAS) 
 |
With over 8,000 students and more than 220 professors as well as about 200 lecturers and another 450 staff members at its two locations, Aachen and Jülich, the AcUAS ranks among the largest universities of applied sciences in Germany.
In addition to a broad spectrum of engineering sciences, the range of programs on offer also includes Design and Economics.
While AcUAS was founded in 1971, some predecessor institutions can look back on a partly centennial tradition. |
Orientation towards practice in teaching and research – this is a major concern of the AcUAS: close cooperations with regional and internationally operating companies, renowned research institutes like the Forschungszentrum Jülich (research centre Jülich) and numerous universities all over the world guarantee the students an education that meets the increasing demands of today’s labour markets.
The AcUAS does not only offer the classical engineering education in professions like Construction Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or Electrical Engineering – in an intensive dialogue with commerce, politics and professional practice new and application-oriented programs have been and are continually developed, which exceed today’s requirements by far.
