The association TU9 German Universities of Technology e. V. is an association of nine leading technical universities in Germany .

overview

TU9 was founded as a formal association on January 26, 2006. It had previously existed as an informal association since 2003. The founding president (2006–2009) of TU9 was the rector of the then University of Karlsruhe , Horst Hippler . The association's headquarters and offices are in Berlin.

Members of the TU9 association are those technical universities that existed in Germany before 1900. When the association was founded in the Senate Hall of the TU Braunschweig in January 2006, the following presidents or rectors (or their representatives) were present and signed the charter:

The association sees it as its task to be available as a contact for society, business and politics. In particular, it concerns the issues of university engineering training.

Early August 2010. advocated the TU9 universities in favor of the degree of re- diploma introduce -Ingenieurs for graduates of a five-year engineering studies.

University political commitment

As a university network connected primarily through its core subjects in engineering, TU9 pays particular attention to the public perception of topics that are highly relevant for these core subjects. This includes B. the evaluation of the statistics published by the Federal Statistical Office on the acquisition of third-party funding by German universities with a special focus on engineering or the presentation of the importance of the TU9 universities among graduates.
