About Us
For the third time in a row, RWTH Aachen University stands among Germany’s eleven universities of excellence that receive state funding amounting to 148 million € per year. RWTH Aachen is the leading German University in third party funding, receiving close to 300 million € yearly. The university is also part of TU9, an alliance of nine leading technical universities in Germany. RWTH ranks 18th in the QS World University Rankings by Subject 2020: Engineering – Mechanical, Aeronautical & Manufacturing. Nationally, RWTH graduates are the most sought-after on the German job market (Wirtschaftswoche ranking).
As the central, executive education institute of RWTH Aachen University, RWTH International Academy is able to call upon the expertise of the university’s research institutes. Each of our M.Sc. programs is developed in conjunction with RWTH institutes: While the institute nominates the academic director and delivers the courses, International Academy administers the programs and offers students additional support. Thus, international students do not only profit from the university’s expertise in a practical manner, they also enjoy extraordinary assistance through the Academy’s Master Office Team.
The Institute of General Mechanics has existed since the founding of RWTH Aachen University in 1870. The institute was headed by eminent scientists, such as August Ritter, Arnold Sommerfeld and Theodor von Kármán. In August 2013, Bernd Markert was appointed full professor at RWTH Aachen University and Director of the Institute of General Mechanics in the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering. The institute mainly focused on Statics, Resistance of Materials, Computational Intelligence, Artificial Neural Network, Molecular Mechanics, Multiscale Modeling, Dynamics, Structural Mechanics, Biomechanics, Smart Structures, Composites.
Prof. Bernd Markert
Scientific Advisor
Prof. Bernd Markert holds a diploma degree (Dipl.-Ing.) in Civil Engineering from the University of Stuttgart. He finished his PhD (Dr.-Ing.) at the Institute of Applied Mechanics (CE) at the University of Stuttgart in 2005. In 2013, he became a supernumerary professor (apl. Prof.) at the University of Stuttgart. In August 2013, Bernd Markert was appointed full professor at the RWTH Aachen University and Director of the Institute of General Mechanics in the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering. His present research focuses on the theory and numerics of general coupled problems, computational and experimental biomechanics and structural mechanics, as well as extended continuum methods, such as phase-field models.

Coming to Germany from India was a life-changing move for me. Having been here for more than a decade now, I can say it was one of the best decisions I made. For doing a master thesis with Hilti Corporation at the time of my master’s degree (2008-10), I went to Lichtenstein for the first time. The Alps were too good to resist for me, and I found myself a new hobby during that time – hiking! Being in the mountains and finding new hiking routes is very refreshing to me.
When I’m not teaching or doing research, you will find me in Westpark chasing after my bicycle riding son, who just turned 5. He’s the reason behind my fitness! I enjoy talking to students, catching up with friends on weekends over dinner, and discussing everything from politics, sports, and awesome web series!
