Special features regarding the equipmentIn addition to the usual extensive lecture theatres, seminar rooms and practical areas as well as a separate specialist library for Physics with extensive student workstations, the following are a highlight: extensive experiment equipment collection which is state-of-the-art but also has a great tradition (H. Hertz); its own building for practicals in which all physics practicals are housed on-site; a large number of its own seminar rooms in the faculty area; extensive student workstations; the integration of the Helmholtz Großforschungsbereich (Helmholtz large-scale research area) in the teaching.
-
Special features regarding research activitiesIn addition to the nine institutes, two labs and seven associated institutes, there are three centres of excellence and a graduate school in the faculty area. By focusing on future-oriented research fields such as nanotechnology, energy, climate, environment and mobility systems, and in the association of the university with the Helmholtz-Großforschungsbereich (Helmholtz large-scale research area), KIT belongs to internationally visible scientific institutions.
-
Support for foundersWith the "Centre for Interdisciplinary Entrepreneurship", KIT operates a central contact point for founders.
