In our teaching and research unit, it is essential to use the RWTH Aachen corporate design for all visual media, including presentations, posters and our logo. This ensures a consistent and professional appearance that aligns with the university's brand identity, reinforcing our commitment to coherence in all our communications. By adhering to these guidelines, we enhance the visibility and recognition of our work within the broader academic and professional communities.
Information on the RWTH corporate design can be found on the official RWTH website, including the most important aspects as PDF's.
As the name already states, the corporate design provides guidelines, not design laws... So slight deviations are allowed as long as the most important aspects are kept in mind!
