It is the only university in central Germany to be classified as a university of excellence. Through its faculties and professorships, it pools scientific expertise in the region and beyond, making a key contribution to Dresden’s innovative strength, and ensuring it becomes an important partner for research institutes and businesses within Germany and abroad.
A number of startups and uni spin-offs are using their new products to shape the future. The pioneering spirit is palpable – and visible – for businesses based here: With over 100 registered proprietary rights a year, the TU Dresden holds one of the largest numbers of patents of any university in Germany. And yet it is just one of several prestigious scientific addresses in Dresden.
