Research
Interdisciplinary approach
The Faculty “Health | Communication | Human-Technology Interaction” conducts applied research and development in close co-operation with industry partners. Numerous excellently equipped laboratories are available for this purpose, which are used not only in research and development, but also in practice-orientated training.
Institute for Applied Health Sciences Landshut (IGLA)
Founded in 2025, the institute acts as a platform for the structured, practice-orientated examination of the topics of medical, health and midwifery care research and strategies. Its aim is to improve comprehensive, needs-oriented and personalised healthcare.

Research projects
Applied research plays an important role at our faculty alongside high-quality teaching. This is demonstrated by the numerous projects in which our professors are active as researchers and are recognised both nationally and internationally as experts in their field. The faculty is currently conducting research on the following topics:
Health (e.g. on digitalisation and health)
Communication (e.g. sign language / media anthropology, cultural identity, comparative aesthetics and photography / diversity and equality)
Human-technology interaction (e.g. on energy and battery research / climate protection, sustainability and resource conservation)
Promotion
In addition to doctorates in cooperation with a university, since 2023 it has also been possible to do a doctorate directly at universities of applied sciences and technical universities in Bavaria.
