    537. Stiftungsfest - Audio mit Folien
    Der Festvortrag wird stets von einem der 700 Professorinnen und Professoren gehalten. Er beleuchtet eine aktuelle hochschulpolitische Frage aus wissenschaftlicher Perspektive. Damit will das Stiftungsfest den Gästen der Universität auch einen Einblick in das breite Spektrum ihrer Forschung geben. Mit dem Stiftungsfest erinnert die LMU an die Stiftung der Universität durch Herzog Ludwig den Reichen im Jahr 1472. Damals wurde die "Hohe Schule" in Ingolstadt eröffnet, 1800 nach Landshut transferiert und schließlich 1826 von König Ludwig I. nach München verlagert.
