| Institution Profile | ||||||||||||||
|
The University of Stuttgart was founded in 1829, a time period which saw the beginning of the rise of the industrial age in the region. Stuttgart made a name for itself due to the scholars that passed through it and it gained increasing importance. It is one of the leading technical universities in Germany with highly ranked programs in civil, mechanical, and electrical engineering. The university has two campuses - Most technical subjects (computer science, engineering, etc.) are located in Vaihingen, while social sciences, architecture, and similar topics are still located in the city center campus. |
