Prof. Dr.-Ing. Imke Engelhardt has been Professor of Steel Construction and Welding Technology at the Faculty of Civil Engineering at Munich University of Applied Sciences since 2011. She heads the Steel Construction and Welding Technology Department of the Laboratory for Steel and Light Metal Construction.

Imke Engelhardt began her work as a structural engineer in 2002 at the engineering group Tokarz Frerichs Leipold, Beratende Ingenieure für Bauwesen, Hanover, and continued at the engineering firm Peil, Ummenhofer und Partner, Braunschweig. After this practical experience, she worked from 2003 to 2008 at the Institute for Structural Maintenance and Supporting Structures, Technical University of Braunschweig as a research assistant. From 2009 to 2011 she built up the newly founded office in Karlsruhe as branch manager of the engineering firm Peil, Ummenhofer und Partner and worked on and supervised challenging engineering tasks.

She studied civil engineering at the Technical University of Braunschweig and at the University of Rhode Island (1997-2001) and graduated as Dipl.-Ing. and Master of Science. In 2008, she completed her doctorate on the topic of "Fatigue behavior of mechanically posttreated welded joints as a function of the boundary layer condition" at the Technical University of Braunschweig.
