Introduction on Fuel Cell and Battery Systems

The fuel cell and battery research programme is multi-disciplinary and involves mechanical engineering, control engineering and electrical engineering. The group conducts research in the areas of fuel cell and battery components, systems and control with a strong focus on the combination of experimental and theoretical work.

The research group is devoted to the education of highly qualified B.Sc., M.Sc. and PhDs in the area of fuel cells and batteries. International students with an interest in the research area are invited to join the international master programmes in Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology. Alternatively, you may also work with fuel cells in the programmes Thermal Energy and Process Engineering and Mechatronic Control Engineering if your main interests lie within these areas. The group also welcomes guest students with an interest in working with fuel cells and batteries.
