Though the present name of TU Berlin was established in 1946, but its history goes past institutions such as the Mining Academy, the Building Academy, and the Vocational Academy that were founded in 1770, 1779, and 1821 respectively. In the year 1879, the latter two united to form the Royal Technical College and were joined later by the Mining Academy. Finally, in 1946, the former Technical College Berlin – Charlottenburg in the British Military Sector of Berlin was re-established as the Technical University of Berlin.
