Reichsministerium für Wissenschaft, Erziehung und Volksbildung
Reich Ministry of Science, Education and National Education
The Reich Ministry of Science, Education and Culture (unofficially known as the 'Reich Education Ministry' or 'REM') existed from 1934 until 1945 under the leadership of Bernhard Rust (succeeded by Gustav Adolf Scheel - 30th April to 2nd May 1945) and was responsible for unifying the education system of Nazi Germany and aligning it with the goals of Nazi leadership.
The REM was the successor to the former Preußisches Ministerium für Wissenschaft, Kunst und Volksbildung (Prussian Ministry of Science, Art and Culture), creating for the first time in Germany a centralized and hierarchical institution in control of the Reich's education sector. In 1934, the REM took over from the Reichsinnenministerium (Reich Interior Ministry) the supervision of colleges and universities in Germany, as well as research institutions such as the Physikalisch-Technische Reichsanstalt (abbreviated PTR; translation: Reich Physical and Technical Institute.); today, the PTR is known as the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt.
