Technical University of Munich

The Technical University of Munich (TUM) is the second largest technical university in Germany with over 48,000 students and 11,000 employees. It is one of the three top excellence universities in Germany and is considered one of the best universities in Europe due to its outstanding achievements in research and teaching. In the Department of Informatics, the Chair of Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, and Real-time Systems in Garching focuses on researching artificial intelligence and autonomous systems, among others, in research projects such as the Human Brain Project, ECHORD++, and Providentia++.
