The programme is centred on multidisciplinary training for doctoral students, incorporating practical exercises and collaboration with scientists from 20 different national and international organisations and universities. These include Princeton University, the University of California, Berkeley, ETH Zurich, the Leibniz Universität Hannover and the TU Delft.
The recently established RTG 'Climate-Informed Engineering' provides an unparalleled opportunity to develop effective climate-resilient solutions that align with international initiatives such as the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and the European Commission's Green Deal. The RTG's distinctive methodology integrates high-resolution climate simulations from the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology (MPI-M) with sophisticated engineering techniques from TU Hamburg, facilitating innovations such as climate-adapted materials and processes. Furthermore, the collaboration with the United Nations University Institute for Water, Environment and Health (UNU-INWEH) enhances the Centre's global reach through an international presence and the inclusion of decision-making perspectives.
Congratulations on this great success," said Hamburg's Science Senator Katharina Fegebank. And TUHH President Prof Andreas Timm-Giel added: 'Educating the next generation of engineers who will use their work to find answers to the pressing questions of climate change is a great benefit for research and the future of our city.
The new RTG, entitled "Climate-Informed Engineering", is being funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) with approximately seven million euros over a five-year period.
