A Portrait of the University of Ulm

The University of Ulm is chronologically the ninth in Baden-Wuerttemberg. The first ideas of founding a university in Ulm go back to the 50’s. In 1959, the research group “University of Ulm” was formed, which produced a memorandum on founding a university in March of 1961. Due to competition between the cities of Constance and Ulm in the early stages, the idea of establishing a university in each of the two cities gained popularity. A critical factor leading to this decision was the fact that Constance is situated near a federal border. The opportunities for employment in the field of medicine would not be sufficient due to the lack of a patient catchment area at the border. The idea of founding a university in Ulm therefore became more concrete – it would be a university shaped by medicine and natural sciences.

In July of 1965, the foundation committee submitted its “Memorandum on a College of Medicine and Natural Sciences in Ulm,” which was approved by the state of Baden-Wuerttemberg’s council of ministers in January 1966. Just two months later, the “Interim Constitution of the Ulm College of Medicine and Natural Sciences” came into effect.

Faculties

The University of Ulm is divided into four faculties, each with its numerous scientific establishments, the institutes. The faculties are headed by the deans’ offices, which are responsible for coordinating student services.

Research

Right from the beginning, the University of Ulm asserted its claim as a research university. Thanks to its interdisciplinary and cooperative working methods, the University has been able to establish numerous research concentrations and Collaborative Research Centres both in basic and applied research, achieving successful results.

In addition to national and international acclaim received, the regional research concentrations are worth pointing out. In the cooperative model Science City Ulm, universities, research institutes and industrial companies work together intensively at a regional level on developing and using new technology.
