The Stuttgart Media University or Media University (German: Hochschule der Medien Stuttgart or Hochschule der Medien) is a state university of media studies in Stuttgart, Germany.

It was formed in 2001 by the union of the two former schools: the Hochschule für Druck und Medien and the Hochschule für Bibliotheks-und Informationswesen.^[1]

The University offers bachelor's and master's degrees in three faculties:

• Faculty of Printing and Media
• Faculty of Electronic Media
• Faculty of Information and Communication

It also offers a doctorate in collaboration with partner universities. It has an Institute for Applied Research and operates the university publisher, Verlag Stuttgart.

Both schools are now defunct after their union to form Media University.
