Mission

In the years since the institution was founded in 1956, the spectrum of activities at the GKSS Research Centre in Geesthacht has moved to accommodate the shifting focus of social, scientific and economic inquiry in order to arrive at the Centre’s present research profile. In accordance with our motto — “Knowledge generates utility” — the researchers at GKSS not only produce scientific knowledge but also apply it to a range of concrete uses for the present and future.

As a member of the Helmholtz Association of German Research Centres, the largest scientific organization in the country, GKSS is engaged in long-term activities in the fields of materials and coastal research that are making a major contribution to resolving the large and pressing issues facing society and the scientific and business worlds.
