What we do:Dresden is one of Germany’s leading places in materials
research and even holds an international top position in this
field. In order to consolidate this leading edge, "ECEMP –
European Centre for Emerging Materials and Processes Dresden”
was founded in 2007. In total 37 professorships from 22 Institutes of the TU
Dresden, the HTW Dresden and the TU Freiberg are involved in
the centre, creating an extensive network of multidisciplinary
research. In the 14 subprojects of ECEMP, research is focused
on the development of multicomponent materials and their
associated technologies for the three future fields of ECEMP:
energy management, environmental technology and lightweight
engineering. The scientists at ECEMP are experts for all classes of
materials, as metals, plastics, natural compounds and
ceramics, and the complete value chain: material design (CMS),
development, production, processing and application of
components. This offers a variety and broadness, which is
currently unique in Germany. In August 2008, ECEMP was awarded the Initiative of
Excellence of the Free State of Saxony. In the following 5
years it will be funded by the European Union and the Free
State of Saxony with 35 million Euros. Furthermore, ECEMP is
going to acquire further subsidies in the same order itself.
After this start-up funding, the cluster of excellence ECEMP is
supposed to be self-financing and assert itself in the
international competition. Our aims:
