Introduction

About us

The Institute of Process Technology, Process Automation and Measuring Technology (Institut für Prozesstechnik, Prozessautomatisierung und Messtechnik; IPM) was founded 1993. Over the past few years, it has developed into the research engine of the Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences. The IPM carries out application-oriented research and development work in the fields of energy technology and mechatronics. With approximately 40 employees and four professors, each representing a department, the IPM is the largest structural unit at Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences. Additionally, around 20 students from home and abroad doing there internship or thesis at the institut. Together they work using a laboratory space of 1.400 m² with a modern research infrastructure and at 70 computer workplaces.

Structure

IPM has its focus on power technology and mechatronics. Particularly against the background of structural change in the Lusatian region, the IPM is making important contributions to meeting upcoming challenges.

The activities of the IPM are divided into four sections:

Mechatronic Systems
Measuring Technology/Process Automation
Nuclear Technology/Soft Computing
Power Generation, Steam Generator and Fuel Technology

About us

The Institute of Process Engineering, Process Automation and Metrology (IPM) was founded in 1993 and has developed into the research engine of the Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences over the past few years. The IPM carries out application-oriented research and development work in the fields of energy technology and mechatronics. With around 40 employees and four professors, each representing a specialist area, the IPM is the largest structural unit at Zittau/Görlitz University of Applied Sciences. In addition, around 20 students from Germany and abroad work at the institute as part of internships and final theses. They work together in a laboratory area of approx. 1,400 m² with state-of-the-art research infrastructure and 70 computer workstations.
