Dortmund University of Applied Sciences and Arts

The Fachhochschule Dortmund, with over 11,000 students one of the largest colleges in North Rhine -Westphalia. She is represented at three locations in Dortmund.

History

The origins of the Fachhochschule Dortmund are in the Royal foreman School of Mechanical Engineering, which opened in today's Cross district on November 3, 1890 at the site sun road.

As of 1893, the educational institution operated under the title "Royal engineering schools to Dortmund " and consisted of three departments:

  • Royal Technical High School of Mechanical Engineering
  • Royal foreman school for mechanical engineers, locksmiths and blacksmiths
  • Evening and Sunday Tutorial with subject teaching ( evening classes )

In 1904 the school was supplemented by a design education in the fields of Architecture and Design.

On April 1, 1931, further renaming took place this time in " United State Technical Colleges of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering ."

In 1969, major restructuring took place after a strike semester - student representatives on all committees and tests - institutionalization of the field of information technology with a hardware configuration of electron tube analog computer and phywe relay computer.

Today's Fachhochschule Dortmund was founded on August 1, 1971 on the basis of the former State School of Engineering, the School of Applied Arts Dortmund as well as the Higher Schools of social work, social and economic. In the founding period to 1972 a total of 2800 students were enrolled, with 144 professors were on hand. Meanwhile, the number has grown to about 12,250 students ( WS 2013/14 ). These are served by 221 professors, plus, 416 lecturers, 22 teaching staff for special tasks and 176 scientific and artistic staff / inside.

Locations

The headquarters is located in Dortmund Kreuzviertel ( Sun 96-100 ). There are the departments of Information and Electrical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering at this site. The Department of Design is also located in the city center, but there in a paged building (Max- Ophüls -Platz 2 ).

The largest site is located on the North Campus of the Technical University of Dortmund. Here, the faculties of architecture, computer science, applied social sciences and economy ( Emil-Figge-Str. 40, 42, 44), their place, where by far the greater part of the students is to be found.
