Research Information System (FIS)
TU Dresden has been operating a Research Information System (FIS) for more than 20 years. Starting as a simple offline database for book publications, it has been developed in several phases into a customized, browser-based database application with a public search interface. With a total of over 200,000 records, the FIS serves as a showcase of research activities at TU Dresden for a wide range of stakeholders from academia, industry, and politics. You’ll get a first-hand overview of the latest publications, research projects, copyright law, theses, and much more. This research information is supplemented by expert profiles from the Chairs and Institutes, as well as details on their technical facilities at TU Dresden.
