The Modern Classic

In 1810, Wilhelm von Humboldt’s vision for a new type of university became reality.

His vision:

to uphold the ideal of research without restrictions

to provide an all-round education

the unity of research and teaching

These principles soon became general practice throughout the world. A new era of university and academic research had begun.
