Research at the Faculty
The research projects at the Faculty of Civil Engineering perfectly fit into the research priority areas of TU Dresden. The wide range of research projects - involving in addition to professors and academic staff also students - reflects the diversity and fascination of the working field of civil engineers.
Extensive Research
Research and development have a major impact on the quality and safety of buildings.
At the institutes of the faculty user-friendly programmes are created and continuously enhanced.
For the experimental research large and performant laboratories are available. In these laboratories very large components are tested up to failure, river currents are simulated and extremely small details of construction materials are made visible with high-resolution special microscopes.
