Preamble
The University Paderborn and the Qingdao University of Science and Technology [QUST] are looking back to a close relationship which last more than 20 years. Based on these fruitful results, it is now possible to enter a new stage for future collaborations. In this new phase of intense collaborations the main focus will be set on Applied Research & Teaching; it is planned to involve further Universities. With that said the sino-german campus “Chinesisch-Deutscher Campus” [CDC] was founded in March 2017 and will be transferred into a sino-german technical university “Chinesisch-Deutsche Technische Universität” [CDTU]; both institutions will be constructed in Qingdao.
