WE DEVELOP
TALENTS
FSTM has a key mission: attract and train the talents that Luxembourg and
the world will need in the STEM fields (Science, Technology, Engineering
and Mathematics) as well as in Medicine.
The Faculty of Science, Technology and Medicine (FSTM) contributes multidisciplinary expertise in
the fields of Mathematics, Physics, Engineering, Computer Science, Life Sciences and Medicine.
Through its dual mission of teaching and research, the FSTM seeks to generate and disseminate
knowledge and train new generations of responsible citizens, in order to better understand, explain
and advance society and environment we live in.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
“The doctoral school was very helpful in guiding me towards improving both
my technical and personal skills. I managed to enrich my technical skills by
attending different conferences, workshops and courses. In addition, my
participation in different leadership, language and management skills’ courses
paved the way to strengthen my personal skills. The doctoral school played
an important role in developing my future career path. The results of that can
be observed at the end of my doctorate where I succeeded to start working
in the German industry immediately after finishing my thesis. The doctoral
school is a challenge full of opportunities.”

unveil the fundamental processes that govern and determine the
properties of matter. The research groups employ a wide range of
cutting-edge spectroscopic techniques in order to understand,
design and control materials with important applications in future
technology. The experimental activity is accompanied by advanced
modeling of the fundamental phenomena to obtain a complete picture
MEMBERS of the functioning mechanisms of materials and related devices.
