Campus news The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) will move from the main campus in Munich to the research campus in Garching over the next few years. A new faculty building will also be constructed at the site. First prize in the architectural competition that was held to choose the design was won by Henn GmbH in Munich. The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (EI) is one of the leading engineering faculties in Germany. Among other things, it has received five of the prestigious ERC grants and can boast a Humboldt professor as well as a Leibniz award winner. The TUM main campus, with its 11 buildings set on approximately 30,500 square metres, currently hosts a total of 45 professors and around 4,000 students. After years of use, the buildings can no longer meet the modern needs of teaching and research, nor can they cope with the increasing demand for space.
