    FAU Competence Center Engineering of Advanced Materials (FAU EAM)

    Originating from the very successful Cluster of Excellence Engineering of Advanced Materials (2007-2019), the FAU Competence Center Engineering of Advanced Materials (FAU EAM) was established as research center at FAU in April 2022 to unite existing structures within the FAU Key Research Priority ‘New Materials and Processes’ with the aim to continuously develop fundamental research methods and provide high-class infrastructure. FAU EAM, with the existing competence, will continue to act as nucleus for and backbone of new research initiatives and as hub for worldwide visible excellence in materials and process research. Therefore, a close research collaboration and mutual cross-fertilization of scientific knowledge will be established with the FAU Profile Center New Materials and Processes (FAU NMP).

  • FAU Competence Center for Scientific Computing (FAU CSC)

    The CSC is the Competence Center for scientific computing within the FAU Erlangen-Nuremberg. The CSC was originally founded out of the cluster of excellence Engineering of Advanced Materials (EAM), the CSC combines the expertise and experience of a range of facilities within the university. With this, the CSC represents a unique interdisciplinary platform for cooperation, which provides the necessary environment for even the most complex research activities in the field of numerical simulation and scientific computing.

  • Helmholtz Institute Erlangen-Nürnberg for Renewable Energy (HI ERN)

    The Helmholtz Institute Erlangen-Nürnberg for Renewable Energy (HI ERN) investigates and develops material- and process-based solutions for a climate-neutral, sustainable, and cost-effective utilization of renewable energies. The institute works on the structural and functional characterization, modeling, and processing of materials relevant to hydrogen and solar technology. The common goal is the understanding of structure-performance-process relationship on the mesoscale.

  • Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Systems and Device Technology (IIBS)

    The Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Systems and Device Technology (IIBS) conducts applied research and development in the areas of microelectronics and nanoelectronics, power electronics and mechatronics. The institute has received international attention and recognition for its technology, device and material developments for nanoelectronics, its activities in the area of simulation and its work on power electronic systems for energy efficiency and hybrid and electric cars.
