New cooperation between WWHK and Evident
Industrial cooperation is immensely important for our research at the WWHK. The Department of Materials Science and Testing and the measuring instrument manufacturer Evident have decided on a close cooperation and fixed it in a contract. Now students and researchers can use their state-of-the-art equipment.
New DFG project brings personnel reinforcement to WWHK
