Chair of Aircraft Engineering represented at the German Aerospace Congress 2025 in Augsburg

From 23 to 25 September 2025, the leading experts in German aerospace will meet at the Kongresszentrum am Park in Augsburg – and our professorship will be prominently represented with numerous specialist presentations. With over 400 presentations and around 1,000 participants, the DLRK offers the ideal platform to present our innovative research and establish valuable networks.

You are invited to attend our specialist presentations. The complete list of presentations for the DLRK 2025 can be found at: https://dlrk2025.dglr.de/?id=5099.

Highlight lecture: Focus on our research aircraft

As a special highlight, our professor will present the lecture ‘Research aircraft of our professorship: Present and future in research, teaching and projects’. He will provide exclusive insights into the research aircraft fleet of TU Dresden and its wide range of applications.

From hands-on teaching experiences to innovative research projects, our aircraft are key tools for experiments and practical training for future aeronautical engineers. The presentation concludes with an exciting look ahead to upcoming missions and technological developments that will contribute to unique research solutions and greater sustainability in aviation.
