Funding body: Saxon State Ministry for Economic Affairs, Labour and Transport (SMWA)
The aim of the project is to transfer the research findings achieved at the Institute for Computer Science and Media in Research and Transfer in the field of motion simulation and Software Development into industrial practice. Through collaboration with Saxon companies, the project aims to develop innovative technologies and products that enable a high degree of immersion and realistic simulations. The project promotes the transfer of knowledge and technology, strengthens the regional economy and bridges the gap between academia and industry in Saxony. A transfer assistant acts as the link, being responsible for the preparation and transfer of project results, organisational tasks within the project context and public relations work.
Topic: Transfer of social economy technologies (TransSozWi)
Project leader: Prof. Dr. phil. Stephan Beetz
Duration: 1 August 2025 – 31 July 2028
Funding body: Saxon State Ministry for Economic Affairs, Labour and Transport (SMWA)
The research findings achieved to date by the Faculty of Social Sciences at Mittweida University of Applied Sciences in the areas of promoting participation in small and medium-sized enterprises (BTHG, securing a skilled workforce) and of engagement that promotes democracy and community life in local authorities and social economy organisations have reached a level that enables their transfer to the business sector. Through the transfer of R&D findings, technologies and expertise, Saxon companies can develop innovative applications.
The transfer assistant is to act as a link between the university and the business sector and support the transfer of Mittweida University of Applied Sciences’ research findings into Saxony’s economic sectors. The post is intended to consolidate research into social innovation and societal change within the faculty and to further develop the transfer record.
