At both campuses in Zittau and Görlitz, engineering, natural sciences, and Social Sciences work closely together. This interdisciplinary connection makes research at HSZG strong and effective: regionally, nationally, and internationally. Students are involved in research projects from an early stage, and new findings are directly incorporated into teaching.
