Bilfinger Berger places great importance on promoting science and education, whereby we also apply decentralized concepts. Our collaboration with leading universities in Germany is focused on technical and business management faculties. At the technical universities in Aachen, Darmstadt, Karlsruhe and Dresden, next-generation engineers are awarded the Bilfinger Berger Prize every year in recognition of outstanding achievements. At the Technical University of Berlin, we are a major sponsor of the Hans-Jürgen Ewers Prize, which is awarded in the field of infrastructure research. And at the University of Mannheim, we provide support for students’ education as a sponsoring partner of the Faculty of Business Administration.We also assist many universities and scientific institutions through donations.
The Knowledge Factory project targets future scientists and engineers at an even earlier age. With the aid of educational projects in kindergartens and schools, children make their first contact with the exciting world of science, technology and economics. Bilfinger Berger supports this initiative and aims to promote interest in technical careers and to counteract the threatening shortage of qualified specialists through this commitment.
