Due to its research and teaching at the interface between engineering and the natural sciences, the KIT Faculty of Chemical Engineering and Process Engineering is predestined for the realization of innovation as the third pillar of the KIT mission.
Successfully certified - FTMV seal of quality
The Faculty Association of Mechanical and Process Engineering awards the FTMV e.V. seal of quality to faculties / departments of mechanical and process engineering for meeting quality requirements in teaching, research and organisation.
Once again, the KIT Department of Chemical and Process Engineering receives the FTMV seal of quality after a voluntary evaluation process for quality assurance, which certifies high quality in research, teaching and organisation. For this purpose, extensive data from research, teaching and administration are collected every year, including for example the number and quality of publications, third-party funding totals, number of doctorates or gender-related issues.
