The Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Process Engineering and Energy Technology at TU Bergakademie Freiberg has once again been awarded the "Gütesiegel" by the Association of Faculties of Mechanical and Process Engineering (FTMV). The FTMV has thus confirmed that the faculty meets its high quality standards in the areas of teaching, research and organisation.

“Receiving this award once again confirms the ongoing commitment of all staff involved in research, teaching and the organisation of studies at the faculty,” explains Dean Professor Andreas Bräuer. "For us, this is both a mark of recognition and an incentive to consistently improve our already excellent study and research conditions.”

Practical and well-supported

The faculty combines personalised support for students with practical and experimental teaching. Small study groups and direct contact with lecturers enable intensive support throughout the degree programme. At the same time, with numerous third-party-funded research projects, scientific publications, inventions and patents in applied research, it ranks among the best faculties in Germany.

“It is precisely this close student-tutor relationship that is a particular strength of studying in Freiberg,” says Professor Matthias Kröger. “Our students have direct contact with lecturers, start working in laboratories and on technical equipment at an early stage, and can reliably plan their path to the degree."
