The Technical University of Munich* \u2013 German Universities: Are They Worth the Money? \u2013 7<\/p>\n
The universities in North Rhine-Westphalia have defended their frugal spending practices by noting that after the elections to be held there in 2010, a new Social Democratic state government could perhaps repeal student tuition fees. Without those fees, the universities would alone be responsible for any additional long-term personnel costs. However, the Education Ministry study regards such concerns as \u201cunfounded,\u201d because in Austria and in German states like Hesse, where fees have been repealed and budget deficits have resulted, the government has stepped in to make up the difference.<\/strong><\/p>\n (To be continued)<\/p>\n Source: \u201eStudiengebuehren: Keine Professoren Und Geld Auf Der Hohen Kante\u201c, Tagesspiegel, 17.12.2009<\/p>\n *In the area of engineering\/technology and computer sciences, according to the Academic Ranking of World Universities compiled by Shanghai Jiao Tong University, the Technical University of Munich, officially recognized by the German government as an \u201celite university,\u201d is ranked with twenty-two other universities at 78 or below, well beneath such institutions as the Technical University of Denmark.
