Communications Technology

In recent years, communication technologies have fundamentally changed almost all areas of life, such as industry, commerce, transport, administration, healthcare, environmental protection and entertainment. Information and communication technologies are of great economic importance, as they often form the basis of added value in products and services. Innovative products and services create growth, which in turn creates new jobs. Germany holds a leading global position in innovative communication systems such as mobile broadband networks, fixed line network technologies, new Internet technologies and in vehicular communications. Reinforcing Germany’s strengths in the field of communication technologies and enhancing its competitive advantage is an important part of the remit of the PT DLR “Information Technology” which we carry out on behalf of the BMBF.

Electronics and Electronics Systems

Be it smartphones, computers or the latest cars, nowadays nothing works without electronics. Innovative electronics systems are the driver of our modern society. Largely unnoticed, they are responsible for the quality and functionality of products and services bearing the seal “Made in Germany”. As a part of the Project Management Agency in DLR we provide services for the Federal Government’s research funding programmes in the field of “Electronics and Electronics Systems” within the BMBF research programme ICT 2020.

Software Systems and Knowledge Technologies

Software systems are innovation drivers in almost all fields of industry. They are of decisive importance for the value created by products, manufacturing and business processes. The “Software Systems and Knowledge Technologies” department of the Project Management Agency “Information Technology” helps implement the funding policies of the Federal Government in the field of software systems with the aim of strengthening the scientific and technical basis of German computer science research and accelerating the transfer of new findings from research to industry.
