Universität Trier
Institution Info
The University of Trier is one of Rhineland-Palatinate's oldest and – at the same time – youngest universities. A University of Trier was first founded in 1473, but like other German universities located west of the Rhine it was closed by Napoleon in 1798. Trier, Germany's oldest city, can today call itself a university town again, however. In 1970, a new university was founded in Trier – initially, until 1975, with the University of Kaiserslautern as a twin institution. Since then, Trier has been developing into a major academic centre in a region characterized by its proximity to Belgium, France and Luxembourg.
Currently, about 14,000 students are enrolled at the University of Trier. There are six faculties which together cover more than thirty subject areas. The university employs 1,000 people and is located on a hill with park areas and a gorgeous view onto the city.
