The Universität der Künste Berlin, UdK (Berlin University of the Arts) is a German university founded in 1975 with the merger of the "Berlin State School of Fine Arts" and the "Berlin State School of Music and the Performing Arts". Its root institutions date back to the founding of the "Akademie der Künste" in 1696. The university has four colleges specialising in fine arts, architecture, media and design, music and the performing arts with around 4,500 students. A "Hochschule" until November 2001, the university is one of the largest institutions of music and arts in the world. Thus the Berlin University of the Arts is the only university in Germany except the University of the Arts Bremen, which unites the faculties of art and music in one institution.
