Darmstadt’s technical university is certainly no ivory tower. It has a reputation as a “working university” with demanding courses and an international standing. Although its courses focus largely on technological and scientific subjects like mechanical engineering and physics, the university also offers unusual programs such as the science of sports with a special emphasis on informatics. Students profit not only from the excellent training, but also from Darmstadt’s location in the Rhine-Main region. Initial career opportunities are significantly increased by studying in one of Europe’s largest economic regions and in the immediate vicinity of the European Space Operations Centre (ESOC).
