The University of Potsdam was established in 1991 and since its foundation has developed into an institution with modern infrastructure and a forward-looking scientific orientation. More than 20,000 students are currently enrolled in more than 100 degree programs hosted by its five faculties, of which the Faculty of Science is the largest. The University has developed Life Sciences as a major focus area with an emphasis on plant sciences, biochemistry and systems biology. It closely cooperates with a number of internationally renowned research institutes such as the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, the German Institute for Human Nutrition, the Helmholtz Centre Potsdam - German Research Centre for Geosciences, the Max Planck Institutes of Molecular Plant Physiology, of Colloids and Interfaces, and of Gravitational Physics, and with institutes of the Fraunhofer Society. The University of Potsdam is located at the Science Park Potsdam-Golm, a rapidly growing research campus gaining significance far beyond Germany's borders.
