KTH Royal Institute of Technology

KTH Royal Institute of Technology (Swedish: Kungliga Tekniska högskolan, abbreviated KTH) is a public research university in Stockholm, Sweden, and the country's largest and oldest institution of higher technical education, established in 1827 and organised since 2018 into five schools.瑞典皇家理工学院（瑞典文：Kungliga Tekniska högskolan，简称 KTH）是位于瑞典斯德哥尔摩的公立研究型大学，也是该国规模最大、历史最悠久的高等技术教育机构，创办于 1827 年，自 2018 年起划分为五个学院。

KTH traces its ancestry to the Laboratorium mechanicum created by the inventor Christopher Polhem in 1697 and to the School of Mechanics founded in Stockholm in 1798, was transformed into the Technological Institute in 1827 and received its present name from King Oscar II in 1877.皇家理工学院的渊源可追溯到发明家克里斯托弗·波尔赫姆于 1697 年创办的机械实验室，以及 1798 年在斯德哥尔摩创立的机械学校；1827 年该校改制为技术学院，1877 年由国王奥斯卡二世赐予现名。

With about 17,000 students, roughly a third of Sweden's engineering graduates and a placing of 82nd in the QS World University Rankings 2027, KTH conducts research and education across engineering, architecture, industrial management and the natural sciences on four campuses in and around the capital.该校约有 17,000 名学生，培养出瑞典约三分之一的工程类毕业生，在 2027 年 QS 世界大学排名中位列第 82 位，在首都及其周边四个校区开展工程、建筑、工业管理与自然科学领域的科研与教学。

History

• The earliest ancestor of KTH was the Laboratorium mechanicum established in 1697 by Christopher Polhem, a Swedish scientist and inventor regarded as the father of Swedish mechanics, who combined teaching, a laboratory and an exhibition of mechanical models in a single institution.KTH 最早的前身是克里斯托弗·波尔赫姆于 1697 年创办的机械实验室，这位瑞典科学家与发明家被视为瑞典力学之父，他把教学、实验室与机械模型陈列集于一体。

• Polhem's collection of mechanical models was used intermittently for practical instruction by successive masters until the School of Mechanics, or Mekaniska skolan, was founded in Stockholm in 1798, giving the future university a continuous lineage stretching back more than three centuries.波尔赫姆的机械模型藏品被历代教师间歇性地用于实践教学，直到 1798 年机械学校在斯德哥尔摩创立，使未来的这所大学获得了一条可上溯三个多世纪的连续谱系。

• In 1827 the School of Mechanics was transformed into the Technological Institute, following the example of polytechnical schools established across Europe in the early nineteenth century and often modelled on the École polytechnique in Paris.1827 年，机械学校改制为技术学院，此举效仿了十九世纪初在欧洲各地兴起的、多以巴黎综合理工学院为范本的工科学校。

• In its first years the institute employed just one professor of chemistry and one of physics and offered a single class in mechanical engineering and another in chemical engineering, and teaching remained elementary and oriented towards craftsmanship rather than engineering science.建院初期，该院仅设一名化学教授与一名物理教授，只开设机械工程与化学工程各一个班，教学水平仍然初级，偏重工匠技艺而非工程科学。

• The institute was long troubled by conflicts between its faculty and its founder and head Gustaf Magnus Schwartz, whose artisanal emphasis was criticised, and a government committee appointed in 1844 led to his removal in 1845.该院长期受困于教师与创始人兼院长古斯塔夫·马格努斯·施瓦茨之间的矛盾，后者偏重手工技艺的做法受到批评，1844 年设立的政府委员会最终促成他在 1845 年去职。

• Joachim Åkerman, a former professor of chemistry who headed the School of Mining in Falun, took charge and carried out a full reorganisation between 1846 and 1848, introducing an entrance examination and a minimum student age of sixteen.曾任化学教授、主持法伦矿业学校的约阿希姆·奥克曼接手后，于 1846 至 1848 年间实施全面改组，引入了入学考试与十六岁的最低入学年龄。

• In 1851 the engineering programme was extended from two years to three, strengthening the scientific content of the training and marking the institute's gradual transformation into a genuine school of engineering.1851 年，工程课程由两年延长至三年，强化了培养中的科学内容，标志着该院逐步转变为一所真正的工程学院。

• In 1863 the institute moved into its own purpose-built premises on Drottninggatan in central Stockholm, and in 1867 its regulations were overhauled to state explicitly that it should provide scientific training to its students.1863 年，该院迁入位于斯德哥尔摩市中心德罗特宁大街的自建校舍；1867 年其章程再次修订，明确规定学校应为学生提供科学训练。

• In 1869 the School of Mining in Falun was transferred to Stockholm and merged with the institute, and in 1871 the institute took over the civil engineering course previously arranged by the Higher Artillery College at Marieberg.1869 年，法伦矿业学校迁至斯德哥尔摩并与该院合并；1871 年该院接办了此前由玛丽堡高等炮兵学院开设的土木工程课程。

• In 1877, by a decree of King Oscar II, the institute received the name Kungliga Tekniska högskolan, the Royal Institute of Technology, which it has borne ever since.1877 年，国王奥斯卡二世颁布法令，将该院定名为「Kungliga Tekniska högskolan」，即皇家理工学院，此名沿用至今。

• In 1917 the main campus on Valhallavägen in the northern part of central Stockholm was constructed, centred on a distinctive courtyard building on the edge of the Royal National City Park, a site at the disposal of the Swedish monarch since the fifteenth century.1917 年，位于斯德哥尔摩市中心北部瓦萨路的王校区建成，以一座别具特色的庭院式建筑为中心，坐落在自十五世纪起即为瑞典君主所有的皇家国家城市公园边缘。
