Research & Transfer at the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam
Research and transfer at the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam are characterized by innovative ideas and transdisciplinary cooperation across subject boundaries. The Centre for Research and Transfer Services supports university members in initiating and carrying out research and transfer-related activities.
Activities in research and transfer
The University of Applied Sciences Potsdam is an inter- and transdisciplinary university anchored in the Berlin-Brandenburg metropolitan region at the interface between urban and rural areas. With our diverse activities in teaching, research, transfer and continuing education and in cooperation with our partners from society and business, we are addressing current societal challenges and foster the development of our region.
In this process the three profile lines "Design ∙ Build ∙ Preserve", "Digital Transformation - Urban Futures" and "Forming Society" play a central role. They cluster the diverse issues that we are working on with regional stakeholders and international research partners on the topics of education, living, housing, sustainability and digitalization. Building on this, we develop interdisciplinary and practice-oriented solution applications.
