German Research Institutions

The University of Applied Sciences München (MUAS) offers bachelor's and master's degree courses in the fields of engineering, business, social sciences and design. We maintain close contact with professional practice through our excellent ties to Munich's major commercial sector, and are actively committed to applied teaching and research. MUAS is a designated “EXIST” university for business start-ups. Training in interdisciplinary work and intercultural thinking prepares our graduates well for a digital and internationally networked workplace, to which our rankings testify.

Research in the service of education

MUAS conducts applied research and development in cooperation with partners from business, society and government, providing strong links with practice. Our teaching also profits greatly from this approach. MUAS offers early career researchers the opportunity to complete a dissertation through a cooperative doctoral training programme.
Our professors conduct research in a large number of projects across Germany and Europe. The majority of research and development lies in the following areas:

• Automotive
• Digital value creation
• Energy efficiency
• Production and materials
• Socio-economic innovation
