TU München was voted Elite University in a joint decision taken by the Science Council and the German Research Foundation on 13.10.2006. Its success with the "International Graduate School of Science and Engineering" (IGSSE) and the two clusters of excellence hosted by TUM - "Cognition for Technical Systems" (COTESYS) and "Origin and Structure of the Universe" - paved the way to realising the future-orientated concept of "TUM. The Entrepreneurial University”. Latching on TUM's performance so far, it is planned to invest a budget amounting to around 150 million euros in consolidating its existing strengths and boosting weaker areas with the help of an attractive environment by 2011.
