The Technische Universität München...
...can trace its actual origins to the independent
'Royal Polytechnic School' founded by King Ludwig II in 1868. Many outstanding university
lecturers once worked at the TUM, and the establishment has produced a large number of leading
scientists and engineers. Since the TUM is the only technical university in the south German state
of Bavaria, this places it under a certain obligation to keep abreast with the foremost advances in
scientific and technical progress. The quality of the education provided by the TUM is proved by the
widely recognized standing of its graduates.
Munich , Garching, Weihenstephan – The TUM Campuses
The Faculties of Architecture, Civil Engineering and Surveying, Economic and Social Sciences,
Medicine, and Sports Science, are all situated at the Main Campus in Munich, the location of the
University Management and central administration offices.
Freising, a town 30 kilometers north-east of Munich, is the location of the Weihenstephan Campus and the
Centre of Life and Food Sciences. The TUM's Centre of Science and Technology is situated on the Garching
Campus, one of the most up-to-date seats of research and learning in Europe. The cooperation between various
disciplines within the TUM departments of Chemistry, Mechanical Engineering, Informatics, Mathematics
and Physics as well as associated research institutions belonging to the Max-Planck Association, the
Bavarian Academy of Sciences, ESO and the LMU Munich constitute the scientific competence of the
research campus.
