Who is actually carrying out which research and knowledge transfer projects at HNEE? Just how diverse, inspiring and forward-looking are research and knowledge transfer at our university? What ideas emerge from the exchange between academia and professional practice? And how can we support one another, build networks and develop new perspectives?
We warmly invite you to our Research and Knowledge Transfer Day on 13 November 2026!
Look forward to a varied day that showcases our university’s research and knowledge transfer activities, provides fresh impetus and offers opportunities for networking and exchange.

As a family-friendly university, we would like to enable parents studying or working at HNEE who have no childcare or insufficient childcare to take part in the Research and Transfer Day. HNEE is therefore endeavouring to organise emergency childcare, where required, with qualified students employed by HNEE. If you require this service, please contact InnoSupport (innosupport@hnee.de) by email by 2 November if possible, and let us know the number and ages of the children requiring care, as well as the times you need childcare.
We will then get in touch with you to discuss the next steps. Should childcare be arranged, a corresponding childcare agreement will be drawn up.
