BTU is trying to make the difficult transition from school to theoretically demanding studies easier by setting up a college. As part of this, school pupils who are already interested are targeted in several phases with relevant projects at school, followed by preparation courses in Mathematics and Mechanics to eliminate any gaps in knowledge and students are later supervised in individual programmes. In addition, experimental procedures, analytical observation and numerical implementation are linked together in introductory projects.

Exceptionally well-equipped laboratories in the areas of Power Plant Engineering, Machines, Power Electronics, High Voltage Engineering, Power System Operation, SMART Grids, EMC Electronics and Information Engineering: audio-video studio, acoustics measurement lab (anechoic chamber), language lab, virtual reality lab, lab and test area for cognitive systems.

close involvement in the "Cognitive Systems" research cluster of BTU C-S (courses, student project, final theses, etc.); Cooperative research projects with international partners, such as CERN (Geneva, Switzerland); Master's students are very involved in research projects of the BMBF and DFG; Close cooperation with non-university research institutes in high-frequency electronics, in particular with the Leibniz Institutes FBH and IHP and the Fraunhofer Institute IZM
