Germany - Dresden Local Name: Technische Universität Dresden

The Technische Universität Dresden dates back to the Technische
Bildungsanstalt Dresden, founded in 1828 and, thus, ranks among the oldest technical-academic educational establishments in Germany.
The TU Dresden has about 35.000 students and almost 4.200 permanent employees (excepting the Faculty of Medicine), 418 professors among them, and, thus, is the largest university in Saxony, today.
Having been committed to sciences and the engineering before the reunification of Germany, TU Dresden now is a multi-duscipline university, also offering humanities and social sciences as well as medicine. There are only few universities in Germany which are able to match this broad scientific spectrum.
