The science location Kaiserslautern - One of the largest IT clusters in Europe
Kaiserslautern is one of the largest locations in Germany in the field of information technology. With the technical university, the college, the distance learning center and a number of important research facilities and institutions, companies can benefit from the latest technological developments here. Anyone who still thinks of Kaiserslautern as the city of sewing machines is of course also right. But that is only a small part of our economic profile, because in the last few decades Kaiserslautern and the region have developed enormously and acquired an excellent reputation: a city of science and an internationally renowned location for high-tech and applied technologies.
Science opens up perspectives
In the meantime, in addition to numerous state-of-the-art research institutions (LINK), many knowledge-based companies have also established themselves in Kaiserslautern and the region as a business location. The up-and-coming generation of highly qualified specialists is also secured by the excellent training and further education at the two universities and at the distance learning center. Around 20.000 students from 80 nations receive a high-quality and future-oriented education here. This shows that the practice-oriented science that we practice in Kaiserslautern is a path to success that is quickly gaining momentum of its own - because at the same time the companies based here are also becoming interesting global cooperation partners.
