The origin of Darmstadt University of Technology can be traced back to a higher business school (H ö here Gewerbschule) founded in 1836. In 1844, the school obtained a building located in Kapellplatz as the school's teaching land.After nearly 20 years of development, a Technische School was established in Darmstadt in 1864, and Gro ß herzoglich Hessische Polytechnische School was established in 1868.

October 10, 1877[129]Hesse and DeVichy IV of the Rhine Highway promoted the Institute of Technology to an academic institution, making it the "Technische Hochschule zu Darmstadt".[127]On November 25, 1899, the Grand Duke of Ernst Ludwig of Hesse State granted the right to grant the doctor's degree to Darmstadt University of Technology.Through the official ceremony, Darmstadt University of Technology finally became one of the top academic and educational institutions.[128]
At the same time, in 1882 in New York, the United States,thomas edison The world's first power plant for residential use was built, and people at that time believed that electricity would conquer the world.But a real problem is that there are not enough well-trained electrical engineers worldwide.Darmstadt University of Technology foresaw this scientific vacancy and established the world's firstelectrical engineeringDepartment, the sixth department of Darmstadt University of Technology.German physicist Erasmus Kittler was appointed as the first professor of the Department of Electrical Engineering.This forward-looking higher education policy paved the way for the rise of Darmstadt University of Technology, and the number of students from Germany and abroad began to grow rapidly.[130]
Erasmus Kittler First Professor of Electrical Engineering
The initial stage of the university
In 1895, the school built a number of new buildings in Hochschulstrasse, including Alte Hauptgeb ä ude, the old main building of Darmstadt University of Technology, and the college building directly opposite the main building.staythe First World WarIn the past two decades, all disciplines of universities have expanded in a diversified way.New disciplines such as papermaking and cellulose chemistry were introduced into teaching and established as early as 1913AeronauticsSystem andFlight mechanicsDepartment.At the same time, the political climate has become more tense.In Darmstadt, political polarization differences against foreign students exploded.Darmstadt University of Technology has a large group of foreign students.
The old main building designed by Heinrich Wagner
In 1924, the university reformed its own education system.Previously, all non-technical disciplines were under the jurisdiction of the Department of General Studies.After the reform, the former Department of General Education was divided into two departments: mathematics and natural science, and cultural research and political science.In addition, in order to make students not limited to their own narrow learning areas, the school began to implement more optimization measures, including increasing the proportion of economics, and hiring professors in political science and sociology.
After the Second World War
the Second World WarDuring this period, Darmstadt University of Technology was the "miracle weapon" of Hitler——PenemingdeOfV-2German university that takes the most actions in the process of rocket project development.The historian Melanie Hanel showed this in her paper:
The statue on the arch of the computer system, the swastika, has been erased
"This makes Darmstadt University of Technology, with more than 90 employees or graduates, the largest university group engaged in this project."[120]
On September 11, 1944, three quarters of the campus of Darmstadt University of Technology was destroyed in an air raid.[125][130]
The post-war reconstruction of Darmstadt University of Technology is mainly based on an important development plan in the 1960s, which is also an important measure taken by the university and the country to cope with the rising total number of students.Since there is almost no additional land available for construction in the city center, the university decided to carry out the expansion plan of the university in Lichtwise area (the former airport in the suburb of the city) in 1963.As many buildings were built here in the late 1960s and early 1970s, Lichtwise eventually became the second campus of Darmstadt University of Technology.
University Reform in the 1970s
In 1968, the student movement of Darmstadt University of Technology led to further reform of universities at the national and regional levels.It aims to establish a clear university structure and ensure that all university members have the right to participate in the decision-making process.In 1970, the Hessisches Hochschullgesetz Higher Education Act came into force.This prompted Darmstadt University of Technology to establish a new university structure.This new university structure is based on the president's laws and regulations and the unified management system, and subdivides the university into subordinate colleges.

In the mid-1970s, the number of students at Darmstadt University of Technology grew rapidly again, while the development of the faculty was far behind.Nevertheless, Darmstadt University of Technology managed to set the direction for the future, such as thecomputer sciencesystem[126]。In addition,SwitzerlandHermann Eidenbenz, a graphic artist, designed the logo of Darmstadt University of Technology in 1972: the stylized head of Athena, the patron saint of art and science, and has always used it[11]。

Late 20th century and early 21st century
On October 1, 1997, the German name of Darmstadt University of Technology Technische Hochschule Darmstadt was officially changed toTechnische Universität DarmstadtIt has always been used.On January 1, 2005, the official promulgation of TUD Law made Darmstadt University of Technology the first public university with autonomy in Germany[123]。In this regard, the new university management structure has been implemented. The university can independently control its budget and manage its real estate. The university can also independently hire professors and conduct wage negotiations.Second and third rounds in 2006 and 2012German University Excellence ProgramIn the selection, two elite graduate schools and one elite cluster of Darmstadt University of Technology were funded.
