Trier University
About the University
A young university in Germany's oldest City
With its 13,000 students Trier University embraces contrast: young, yet true to tradition; internationally oriented and regionally rooted; on the geographic edge of Germany, but in the heart of Europe.
The university is located on a hill with park areas and a gorgeous view onto the city. With its modern architecture surrounded by luscious green nature, it is said to be one of Germany's most beautiful campuses.
As a member of the University of the Greater Region Trier University provides students and staff the opportunity to study and do research in Metz, Nancy, Luxemburg, Liège, Kaiserslautern and Saarbrücken at the same time.
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.
