On the tenth of October in 1877 Ludwig IV, The Grand Duke of Hesse named the Polytechnic School ´Technische Hochschule zu Darmstadt` (Darmstadt Polytechnic) and thereby raised the status of this educational institution to that of a university so that the Abitur (A level, i.e. advanced school-leaving certificate) became the basis for admission. In 1899 the TH Darmstadt was granted the right to award doctorates.
