We actively promote education as well as the interconnection of science and practice in order to achieve a direct positive effect on society, counteract the shortage of skilled workers and sustainably promote Germany as well as Geislingen an der Steige as business locations.
For this reason, we collaborated with Nürtingen-Geislingen University (HfWU) in 2015 to design the “Sustainable Management” study course, which we support in the form of an endowed professorship and which has been awarded the “Innovative through Research” quality seal by Stifterverband. In the interdisciplinary and holistic course of studies, students learn about the economic, legal, and technical aspects of sustainability while also dealing with topics relating to environmental protection, occupational health and safety, management systems, communication, and society as well as companies and the environment.
