The term "hochschule" does.

But it's an almost unknown term in the UK so it conveys almost nothing
to most English speakers.

Therefore some translation is desidered. The term "superior scool" at
least suggests a scool. ALthough the exact meaning of "superior" may
be unclear people probably have some idea of the intended meaning and
that may be sufficient for many purposes.

I think superior school has the same problem. It's unlikely to be
clear.

Everything would be. Often the word "university" is used althogh it
hides the distiction between an "universität" and a "hochschule".

A university would offer a wide range of degree subjects (certainly
mathematics) and would have PhD (and other post graduate degree)
programs.  I don't know about all the hochschule, but I don't think the
Technische Hochschule Augsburg has either.
