Local industry invests in the future of Trier University!
In a welcome turn for Trier University, local industry has pledged generous support. On December 8, 2025, it will be announced that the OGKB technical center at the university will be strengthened by significant financial and material donations. The companies Mesolt and MS Electronics in particular are showing great commitment: Mesolt is providing 22,000 euros for the optical measurement technology laboratory, while MS Electronics is providing a new measuring device worth around 12,000 euros. These grants are part of a larger initiative to improve training conditions at the university and meet the need for well-trained graduates in the region.
“The support of industry is of essential importance to us,” emphasizes Professor Dr. Michael Schuth from the technology department. He emphasizes that innovative research and close cooperation with companies have led to several patents being obtained from which the supporting companies benefit. In connection with this collaboration, Professor Schuth also receives the HLB University Professor Award for Transfer and Cooperation, which underlines the valuable achievements in this area.
Investments in the future
The companies that invest in the university see this as an investment in the future of Trier as an industrial location. In this way, the most modern measurement technology is ensured, which means that the quality of the products developed in the region is maintained. The focus is on new materials such as carbon fiber reinforced plastics in aviation or glass fiber reinforced plastics in the automotive industry. To ensure safety when using these materials, material-appropriate measurement technology is essential.
In addition, Trier University is increasingly conducting research into natural fiber-reinforced plastics. Sustainable material management is seen here as a cornerstone for environmentally friendly product design. In order to achieve these ambitious goals, the OGKB technical center works closely with local industry to develop proactive and climate-friendly solutions.
