Research Buildings – Faculty of Mathematics and Physics

Research Buildings involving the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics

The faculty's research buildings differ from other facilities at Leibniz Universität in that they cater for clearly defined research. These dedicated buildings were built for specific research areas and equipped with large-scale devices, laboratories and office buildings for top-level research. The research programme and the expected time scale determine the main requirements of the research building and the large-scale equipment inside it.

Laboratory of Nano and Quantum Engineering

The Laboratory of Nano and Quantum Engineering is an interdisciplinary Leibniz Research Centre at Leibniz Universität Hannover in the field of nanotechnology. Substantive goals are both excellent basic research and applied engineering at the nanoscale, accompanied by appropriate cross-disciplinary training. Currently there are 26 research groups from physics, chemistry and engineering involved. To achieve its objectives the Laboratory of Nano and Quantum Engineering runs a research building in Hannover, with laboratories, equipment and several clean rooms.

Year of construction: 2008/2009

Hannover Institute of Technology (HITec)

HITec research building in Callinstraße, Hannover

HITec is an interdisciplinary research infrastructure. Under one roof, researchers from areas of physics, geodesy and engineering sciences conduct joint fundamental and applied research as well as technology development in the field of quantum physics and geodesy. With its large-scale devices, HITec is a unique research centre worldwide, which consistently pursues the research programme of the QUEST-Leibniz Research School.

Year of construction: 2015-2018

Lower Saxony Centre for Biomedical Engineering, Implant Research and Development (NIFE)

NIFE - Research Building at Stadtfelddamm, Hannover

With the NIFE, the Region and the State of Lower Saxony have gained international recognition as one of the leading centres for biomedical research and development. The goal of NIFE's research programme is to develop biological, biofunctionalized, and infection-resistant implants to reconstruct and restore failed organ function in the cardiovascular, audio-neurological, musculoskeletal, and dental areas.

Year of construction: 2013-2016
