SDG 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure

Science and research play a fundamental role in our University‘s overall sustainable development strategy, and represent key pillars for the continued operation and development of the entire institution, both in terms of advancing knowledge in various technical and economic fields, as well as in terms of societal relevance. A significant portion of our research activities is conducted in collaboration with industrial partners, with a focus on addressing specific challenges faced by industry and society.

Our main areas of focused research include modern energy (including the development of advanced materials and environmental protection) and the development of digital technologies, particularly in supercomputing and Industry 4.0, all of which are highly relevant and essential for both the Region and the Czech Republic.

In the fields of science and education, VSB-TUO is a key player in the transformation and development of the Moravian-Silesian Region towards a smart and sustainable Region, in line with the SMARAGD vision, particularly in the areas of sustainable energy, industrial production digitalisation, transportation automation, environmental technologies, and smart materials. Our research priorities align with the needs of our Region, the Czech Republic, and the green and digital transformation of Europe.
