Security, climate change, and maintaining prosperity are particular challenges facing our society. The Institute for Air Transport Systems researches and teaches scientific methods and knowledge to meet these demanding tasks. From an overall systemic approach, the Institute deals with central aviation-specific challenges and tasks of society:
• Strategic, political developments in aviation
• Efficient and sustainable climate-friendly air traffic
• Aeronautical applications in special missions
These three areas are addressed with the following research fields:
• Description of possible aviation-related developments as well as analysis and evaluation of the resulting effects
• Conception and evaluation of climate-friendly, innovative air traffic concepts
• Mission and technology-based aviation system design and evaluation for government and security tasks
This work is carried out in close cooperation with disciplinary expertise in science and industry.
The Institute attaches great importance to an approach independent of particular interests and makes its methods and findings available to the general public for their interpretation and use. In its actions, the ILT feels exclusively committed the society.
