acatech is a working academy with flexible organisational structures. Each member belongs to at least one of the currently eleven topical networks. These networks cover a wide range of subjects related to specific branches of engineering. In addition, some of the topical networks also deal with interdisciplinary work involving aspects of the natural sciences, social sciences and humanities.

The members of these networks join forces with outside experts to form interdisciplinary project groups devoted to topical issues of relevance to the future. acatech also participates in a variety of collaborative projects with other academies of science, confirming its integration at an institutional level with the scientific community.

More detailed information on the topical networks, project groups and publications will be posted shortly.
