Deutsche Gesellschaft für Mechatronik (DGM) e.V.

The Mechatronics Association Germany — Deutsche Gesellschaft für Mechatronik e.V. (DGM for short) — was founded by the members of an informal national working group in Germany in the year 2004. The society promotes Mechatronics as a still quite young engineering science.
This we do in the fields

• university education
• science and technology
• bilateral transfer of know how between university and industry

Particularly that means

• public relation work to promote the mechatronic paradigm in engineering sciences
• supporting interdisciplinary research, development and education
• facilitating transfer of know how to the mechatronic industry

These goals are implemented in different forums:

• Arbeitskreis Mechatronik an Hochschulen (AK) — the German working group for mechatronics at universities
• Fachbereichstag Mechatronik (FBT) — the organisation of mechatronics faculties
• international Network of Mechatronics Universities (REM)

as well as by any single member of DGM e.v.

As a self-contained non-profit institution we work independently and spanning over all universities and (German) federal states.
