Yes, never FH, but also not university.
- mixed_bag 3y agoNo, the RWTH is indeed a university. Many (old) THs were granted the status of "Universität" in the 70s and 80s, see https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technische_Universit%C3%A4t https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technische_Universit%C3%A4t And if you don't trust Wikipedia, the RWTH refers to itself as an "Universität", see here for example: https://www.rwth-aachen.de/cms/root/Die-RWTH/Aktuell/Hochschuljubilaeum/~cjxtk/Gruendung-und-Entwicklung/ https://www.rwth-aachen.de/cms/root/Die-RWTH/Aktuell/Hochsch... Doing so would be illegal if they weren't one, so I don't see where the claim that they're not comes from.
- RandomLensman 3y agoYes, it is (and was for a while now) a university but it didn't refer to itself as university until quite recently.
