Business services in Life Sciences and Facility Management | ZHAW Life Sciences and Facility Management

Are you looking for support in solving everyday business problems quickly and innovatively? Our offer includes services and consulting tailored to your needs.

Support for industrial, commercial and service companies

In case of new product development, lack of know-how or infrastructure, our interdisciplinary teams support you in solving complex problems. Within the framework of known knowledge, our know-how as well as modern laboratory infrastructure are at your disposal for studies, tests, expertises, simulations, measurements, trainings or similar.

Types of cooperation

Student theses

Our students tackle real-life problems in projects and final-year theses. Thanks to our industry-focused teaching approach and support from lecturers, workable solutions can be obtained in return for a flat-rate administrative fee.

Research and development projects

We help our partners to translate fundamental research outcomes into commercially viable products and services, in some cases with the help of public research funding (KTI (Swiss Commission for Technology and Innovation), SNF (Swiss National Fund), EU).

Request

Collaboration in the form of a student thesis or as a research project.

Areas of competence

Our interdisciplinary teams have proven competencies in the following areas:

Chemistry and Biotechnology
Computational Life Sciences
Food (-technology)
Natural Resource Siences
Facility Management

Training the scientists of the future

MINT training

Many of the industries of the future – such as medical engineering, energy, IT and biotechnology – will be MINT-related (Maths, IT, Natural sciences and Technology). Our services are aimed at getting children and young people interested in science at an early age and at promoting a positive attitude to technical progress in general and technical professions in particular.
