Institute of technology (also: university of technology, polytechnic university, technikon, and technical college) is a designation employed for a wide range of learning institutions awarding different types of degrees and operating often at variable levels of the educational system. It may be an institution of higher education and advanced engineering and scientific research or professional vocational education, specializing in science, engineering, and technology or different sorts of technical subjects. It may also refer to a secondary education school focused in vocational training. The term institute of technology is often abbreviated IT and is not to be confused with information technology.
The English term polytechnic appeared in the early 19th century, from the French École Polytechnique, an engineering school founded in 1794 in Paris. The French term comes from the Greek πολύ (polú or polý) meaning "many" and τεχνικός (tekhnikós) meaning "arts".
While the terms "institute of technology" and "polytechnic" are synonymous, the preference concerning which one is the preferred term varies from country to country.

On October 01, 2009, the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) was founded by a merger of Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe and Universität Karlsruhe. KIT bundles the missions of both precursory institutions: A university of the state of Baden-Wuerttemberg with teaching and research tasks and a large-scale research institution of the Helmholtz Association conducting program-oriented provident research on behalf of the Federal Republic of Germany. Within these missions, KIT is operating along the three strategic fields of action of research, teaching, and innovation. More information: www.kit.edu

This video describes some of the current work in robotics being undertaken at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in Germany. It shows several demonstrations organised by KIT during a visit from a UNSW Ph.D student. Thanks to Wilhelm August at KIT for organising the visit and demonstrations.
In occasion of the 15-year jubilee in 2015 of the International Department of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology gGmbH the institution published this portrait. Demographic change is associated with the challenge for German industry to recruit qualified experts from abroad. In addition, fast development of technologies requires close cooperation between companies and universities. The education and training programs in English offered by the International Department of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) address the needs of industry. “Our universities may be at home in Baden-Württemberg, but they are active on the international level. In our globalized world, this is a matter of course and the right way to prepare today’s students and future specialists for the challenges of profe...

The KArlsruhe TRItium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment, which is presently being assembled at Tritium Laboratory Karlsruhe on the KIT Campus North site, will investigate the most important open issue in neutrino physics: What is the absolute mass scale of neutrinos? Neutrinos probably are the most fascinating species of elementary particles. The "ghost particle of the Universe" is a key to open issues in science on many scales, linking the microcosm of elementary particles to the largest structures in the Universe. Neutrinos are the lightest particles in the Universe. Their tiny mass is a clear indication for physics beyond the standard model of elementary particle physics. On the largest scales, neutrinos act as "cosmic architects" and take part in shaping the visible structures in the Unive...
