Mission

Mission

The mission of ENTEG is to conduct excellent research and education in the engineering sciences that contribute to sustainable and smart products and processes for society.

Vision

To achieve its mission, ENTEG strives to be a national and international leading engineering science and technology institute that contributes to the major societal challenges in today’s world; the need to become a more sustainable society. We do that by focusing our research on the design of new (sustainable) products and production concepts, on the design of complex engineering systems, and the smart control thereof. We strive to be recognised for the capability to explore and design new technologies, and to improve existing ones, that are based on the integration of fundamental and engineering sciences in a comprehensive environment. This offers us excellent possibilities to collaborate with other scientists within the FSE, the UG and other (inter) national scientific partners. We exploit our unique and strong position to perform high quality research with local-, national- and international impact also via strong collaborations with industrial partners. The institute therefore positions itself as an attractive partner for industry in collaborative (inter)national research programs, and a high-level training ground for Master and PhD students to provide them with an excellent background in engineering science.
