As a West Saxon centre of industry and trade, and particularly as an important location in the automobile industry, Zwickau has enjoyed a long tradition as a home of technological education. The University currently offers a wide range of academic programs in the areas of engineering, economics and life quality.The program contents reflect both the traditions in the field of the automobile industry in West Saxony and modern, innovative ideas and trends using the latest technology. Applied Arts, Architecture as well as Languages and Health and Healthcare Sciences establish the third profile of life quality of the University.Newly arranged and up-to-date equipment provide the basis for both a modern academic and practical university training. As a modern practice-oriented institute of higher education, the University conducts applied research work with a high level of commitment. Research projects are carried out at the University itself, at the new incorporated institutes or at the Research and Transfer Centre. As a result, scientific and technological services are offered for the region andbeyond. Special emphasis is placed on international cooperation and participation in the organisation of the scope of the European universities. Therefore, a system of internationally comparable degrees, particularly through the implementation of the Diploma Supplement, will be introduced.
