Board of Management follows the recommendations of an expert commission

TUM consistently continues to come to terms with its history during the Nazi era

As a sign of its historical responsibility, the Technical University of Munich (TUM) is removing the names of buildings and rooms that bear the names of personalities associated with Nazi history. A place of reflection will be created at a suitable location, where reference will be made to the history of the former Technische Hochschule (TH) of Munich during the Nazi era and the removal of the names will be explained. In addition, TUM is distancing itself from the six honorary doctorates, five honorary senatorial degrees, and 13 honorary citizenships awarded during the Nazi era. The Board of Management thus follows the recommendations of an independent commission of experts.
