In December 2006 we opened our latest University Technology
Centre in Darmstadt, Germany. This UTC will specialise
in the aerothermal interaction between the combustor
and turbine. This discipline shapes the engine's environmental
performance, which is an increasingly vital driver for
the aerospace industry of today and tomorrow.
In March 2006 we launched a University
Technology Centre at Dresden University in Germany to
study the important technology field of lightweight
structures and materials.
In April 2005 we opened a Multidisciplinary
Process Integration UTC led by Professor Arnold Kühhorn
at the Brandenberg Technical University in Cottbus.
In 2002 we signed a Prime University Partnership agreement
with the German Aerospace Centre (DLR - Deutsches Zentrum
fur Luft- und Raumfahrt) situated in Cologne. The work
in DLR will focus on combustion and compressors and
is being led by Professor Reinhard Mönig.
We are also developing relationships with universities
in Aachen, Karlsruhe, Stuttgart and Munich.
