The University of Education was founded in 1962 and moved to Ludwigsburg in 1966. With its approximately 6,000 students and over 450 members of staff, it is the largest of the six Universities of Education in Baden-Wuerttemberg. These Universities of Education offer doctoral and post-doctoral degrees and are therefore on a par with full universities. They concentrate on educational science issues both in research and teaching.
