Technology Transfer

Aarhus University encourages knowledge transfer and contributes to business development and the advancement of society. Technology transfer from research to industry has a high priority for the university. It is the aim of the university to work with small and large companies alike regardless of nationality to develop new technologies, products, job opportunities and thereby strengthen the university’s profile and Denmark’s competitiveness.

The Technology Transfer Office facilitates and supports technology transfer from the university to Danish and international companies alike. Aarhus University is a founding member of University Technology Network, where a range of the university’s available technologies are presented.

The Aarhus University employees’ website - Atrium - contains information, guidelines and forms for employees at Aarhus University and Central Denmark Region including Aarhus University Hospital. Link to Atrium.

A number of case stories about technology transfer at Aarhus University can be found in the right-hand side menu.

New times at au.dk/en

The university’s website is being redesigned. The design and content will therefore change, and you may experience for a while that old and new sections are mixed together, and that the content is not in its usual place.

We hope that the new website will make up for any inconvenience, and that you will enjoy greater coherence throughout and find the website simpler to use.

Why are we making a mess?

In the time ahead, you will notice a mixture of old and new designs in the pages on the website.

In spring 2011, Aarhus University’s nine main academic areas were reduced to four, and the fifty-five departments became twenty-six. This was to unify the organisation and to strengthen the university’s interdisciplinary approach. We are now following suit by restructuring the entire website to ensure more coherence in the content and design.

Such an exercise takes time – and we hope you will bear with us!

Take a short cut

Under the HOT KEY at the top right, you can find links to the most frequently used content on the website, as well as the two new universes for staff and students.

Where can I find it?

Use the new mega dropdowns to get an overview of the website’s content. They open when you run your mouse over the navigation at the top.
