Wirtschaftsregion Mainfranken

as early as 2012 to support the transformation with regard to
electrical energy and drive technology and electromobil ity.
Three more TTCs in Main Franconia have been approved and
will start their work soon. New degree programmes for the
future, such as robotics and hydrogen technology, have been
created at the Würzburg-Schweinfurt University of Applied
Sciences (THWS) to train the qualified engineers of tomorrow.
Artificial intelligence (AI) and super tech are being massively
supported as part of the Hightech Agenda Bavaria: the Competence
Center Artificial Intelligence and Robotics (CAIRO) at
the THWS, together with the Centre for Artificial Intelligence
in Data Science (CAIDAS) at the Julius-Maximilians-Universität
Würzburg, is the hub for data science. The transform.RMF
project addresses SMEs in particular: the aim of the project is
to promote the exchange of experience and networking of companies
affected by the transformation in the leading sectors of
mechanical engineering and automotive in Main Franconia.
THWS also offers a wide range of practical degree programmes
such as electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, mechatronics
and industrial engineering. The Faculties of Physics,
Computer Science, Law and Business Administration at the
University of Würzburg ensure the demand for highly qualified
academics is met and are partners for research cooperation and
technology transfer.
