RWTH Aachen University

RWTH Aachen University exploits strong research networks and the intellectual curiosity of its staff to address bold scientific questions, transfer forefront knowledge and drive innovative discoveries that impact global challenges. All members of RWTH are expected to conduct their research with the highest level of integrity and commitment to excellence and to follow the University’s Code of Conduct in all interactions with third parties on behalf of RWTH.

Thousands of people with an international background, from more than 125 countries, currently study, research, teach, and work at RWTH. This internationality lived out at RWTH is flanked by strategies, measures, and services that promote the internationality of academics, teaching, and research. RWTH sees itself as a member of a global scientific community and aims to be a home, hub, and catalyst for meaningful scientific education, careers, ideas, and innovations. We, therefore, see internationalization as a cross-cutting task that must be equally considered by all institutions and departments of the University.

Vision

Mega trends like digitalization, automation, mobility, climate change, globalization or the demographic development change the world and pose great challenges for society. A consolidation of various academic disciplines and companies is required to solve these complex contexts and issues. RWTH Aachen Campus is a unique platform for finding answers to the relevant questions of the future.
