History[edit]
19th century[edit]
![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8a/Polytechnische_Schule_Muenchen.jpg/220px-Polytechnische_Schule_Muenchen.jpg)
In 1868, KingLudwig II of Bavariafounded thePolytechnische Schule MünchenwithKarl Maximilian von Bauernfeindas founding director. The new school had its premises at Arcisstraße, where it is still located today. At that time, around 350 students were supervised by 24 professors and 21 lecturers. The institution was divided into six departments: The "General Department" (mathematics,natural sciences,humanities,lawandeconomics), the "Engineering Department" (civil engineeringandsurveying), the "Building Construction Department" (architecture), the "Mechanical-Technical Department" (mechanical engineering), the "Chemical-Technical Department" (chemistry), and the "Agricultural Department".
In 1877, thePolytechnische Schule Münchenbecame theTechnische Hochschule München(TH München), and in 1901 it was granted the right to awarddoctorates.With an average of 2,600 to 2,800 students, the TH München became for a time Germany's largesttechnical university,ahead of theTH Berlin.In 1970 the institution was renamedTechnische Universität München.
20th century[edit]

![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/68/TUM_Chemistry_1909.jpg/220px-TUM_Chemistry_1909.jpg)
In 1906,Anna Boyksenbecame the first female student to enroll inelectrical engineering,after the Bavarian government had allowed women to study at technical universities in theGerman Empire. Martha Schneider-Bürgerbecame the first German femalecivil engineerto graduate from the university in 1927.[4]
In 1913,Jonathan Zenneckbecame director of the newly createdPhysics Institute.
During theWeimar Republic,the TH München faced the challenge of limited resources and was drawn into radical political conflicts during theNovember Revolution,theGreat Depression,and therise of Adolf Hitler.Two of the 16 Nazis killed inHitler's failed coup attemptin 1923 were students at the university. TheNational Socialist German Students' Leaguebecame the strongest faction in theGeneral Students' Committeein 1930, and Jewish and politically unpopular professors were terrorized by the young students.[5]
After Hitler took power, the TH was soonalignedand a "Führer rector" was appointed, with the deans directly responsible to him. TheFührerprinzipwas also imposed on universities, resulting in a significant restriction of the autonomy of the TH München. In 1933, the newly enactedLaw for the Restoration of the Professional Civil Serviceled to the dismissal of staff deemed "non-Aryan"or married to" non-Aryans, "as well as politically" undesirable "professors.Jewishstudents lost their rights and were banned from enrolling after 1938.
The university was deeply involved in the crimes of the Nazi regime. For instance, Heinz Henseler, a professor in charge of animal breeding at the university, headed a new "Colonial Science Seminar" from 1940. The seminar focused on exploring how to "Germanize" the landscapes of Poland and Russia forfuture colonizationand settlement during the war. The entire Faculty of Agriculture was influenced by the ideology ofblood and soil,and agricultural scientists had no qualms about using forced laborers and prisoners of war on university experimental farms. Henseler repeatedly asked his former student and SS chiefHeinrich Himmlerfor additional land and led several excursions to the SS herb garden on the grounds of theDachau concentration campwith his students.[5]
DuringWorld War II,the TH München conducted extensive research in armaments to support the war effort. Notable professors during this time included aircraft designerWilly Messerschmittand physicistWalther Meissner.Despite the war, high-level basic research continued to be conducted in some institutes, as some professors, staff members, and students dared to disobey and resist.Nobel laureateHans Fischerprotected Jewish students from Nazi persecution. He committed suicide shortly before the end of the war.[6]
Post World War II[edit]
During the war, 80 percent of the university's facilities in Munich had beendestroyed.Under these difficult conditions, teaching resumed in April 1946.
In 1956, the construction of aresearch reactorinGarchingwas the beginning of the Garching campus. In 1969, thephysics departmentbuilding was opened there, followed in 1977 by new buildings for thechemistry,biologyandgeosciencedepartments.
Between 1868 and 1870 the architectArnold Zenettioversaw the construction of several hospital buildings which are today attached to the Munich universities or form part of the TUM campus.[7]In 1967, aTUM School of Medicinewas founded with campuses in the buildings ofRechts der Isar Hospital.By 1968, the so called TH München comprised six faculties, 8,400 students, and 5,700 staff. In 1972, theZentrale Hochschulsportanlage,a 45-hectare sports center, was built on the grounds of the1972 Summer Olympics.
In 1970, the TH München was renamed to its present nameTechnische Universität München.When the Bavarian Higher Education Act came into force in 1974, the six faculties were replaced by eleven departments. In 1992, the field ofcomputer sciencewas established as an independentDepartment of Informatics,having previously been part of theDepartment of Mathematicssince 1967.
21st century[edit]

In 2002,TUM Asiawas founded in Singapore, in cooperation with theNanyang Technological Universityand theNational University of Singapore.It was the first time that a German university had established a subsidiary abroad.
TheDepartment of Sport and Health Sciencesand theSchool of Managementwere established in 2002. TheWeihenstephandepartments were combined into the "Weihenstephan Centre of Life and Food Sciences" (WZW), which would later become theSchool of Life Sciences.With the establishment of theSchool of Educationin 2009, theSchool of Governancein 2016 and theDepartment of Aerospace and Geodesyin 2018, the university comprises 15 schools and departments.
Since the inception of theGerman Universities Excellence Initiativein 2006, TUM has won every round of evaluation and the titleUniversity of Excellence.[2]
As part of itsAgenda 2030,the 15 schools and departments were consolidated into seven schools by 2023.[8]
