Karl­sruhe Insti­tute of Tech­nol­o­gy (KIT)

We gen­er­ate and dis­sem­i­nate knowl­edge for soci­ety and the environment.

To this end, we deliv­er out­stand­ing achieve­ments rang­ing from basic research to applied research across a broad dis­ci­pli­nary spec­trum in the nat­ur­al sci­ences, engi­neer­ing, eco­nom­ics, and the human­i­ties and social sciences.

We make sig­nif­i­cant con­tri­bu­tions to address­ing humanity’s glob­al chal­lenges in the fields of ener­gy, mobil­i­ty, and information.

As a major research insti­tu­tion, we mea­sure our­selves against inter­na­tion­al com­pe­ti­tion and hold a lead­ing posi­tion in Europe.
