It was founded in 1962 as the first new public university in Germany after World War II. Instruction began in 1965.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

The Ruhr-University Bochum is one of the largest universities in Germany and part of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, the most important German research funding organization.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

The RUB was very successful in the Excellence Initiative of the German Federal and State Governments (2007), a competition between Germany's most prestigious universities. It was one of the few institutions left competing for the title of an "elite university", but did not succeed in the last round. There are currently nine universities in Germany that hold this title.

The University of Bochum was one of the first universities in Germany to introduce international bachelor's and master's degrees, which replaced the traditional German Diplom and Magister. Except for a few special cases, such as law, these degrees are offered by all faculties of the Ruhr-University. Currently, the university offers a total of 184 different study programs from all academic fields represented at the university.<ref name = "RUB performance">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

FacilitiesEdit

Unlike many older German universities, the buildings of Ruhr-University are all centralized on one campus, located south of Bochum city. The Faculty of Medicine includes several university clinics that are located at different centres in Bochum and the Ruhr area. A major facility for patient care is the University Hospital/Knappschaftskrankenhaus in the district Langendreer of Bochum. Internationally renowned experts in their respective fields include professors Wolff Schmiegel in oncology and Burkhard Dick in ophthalmology. The centralized university campus architecture is comprised almost exclusively of the 1960s architecture style referred to as brutalism, consisting of 14 almost identical high-rise buildings. One striking feature of these buildings is that although their roofs are all at the same apparent height (sky level), the absolute heights of the buildings vary in accordance with their placement on the undulating landscape in which the university is located: the campus is at the edge of a green belt on high ground adjacent to the Ruhr valley.

The arrangement of the buildings and the (concrete) paths and bridges between them was originally meant to resemble a "harbour of knowledge", with the buildings symbolising vessels, by architect Helmut Hentrich.<ref name = "RUB architecture">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

The campus has undergone heavy modernisation and extension efforts, including the construction and refurbishment of several buildings.<ref name = "RUB campus dev projects">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Some of the original 1960s buildings are to be rebuilt, instead of refurbished, due to PCB contamination.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> The overall campus concept envisions a modern facility<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> and the placement of Bochum as a "knowledge city".<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

OrganizationEdit

Ruhr-University is financed and administered by the state of North Rhine-Westphalia. Currently, 42,718 students are enrolled, and the university employs around 5,600 staff (411 of which are professors),<ref name = "RUB faculty">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> making it one of the ten largest universities in Germany as of 2014. Kurt Biedenkopf, who later became prime minister of the state of Saxony, was rector of the university from 1967 to 1969.

The university is organized into twenty-one different faculties. These are:<ref name = "RUB faculties">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
