University

Technische Universität Berlin (Berlin Technical University) is a public research university located in Berlin.

Founded in 1770 as the Berlin Technical High School, the university went through a number of reorganizations and mergers before reopening after the Second World War in 1946 under the name “Technical University of Berlin.” It was the first university in the country to receive the status of a “technical university.”

Today, Technische Universität Berlin is one of the largest German technical universities, with over 34,500 students. TU Berlin also leads in the number of international students, who make up 26% of the total. The teaching staff consists of about 2,500 professors, teachers, and researchers. The university offers more than 100 bachelor's, master's, and doctoral programs.

Particular attention is paid to ecology and the environment: the study of these subjects is included in the curriculum for all specialties. The university has successfully created a unique connection between natural and technical sciences, as well as planning, economics, social, and human sciences.
