History

Formation

The earliest predecessor institutions of today's college was founded in 1908 "Royal Baugewerkschule " and opened in 1910 "Royal School of Mechanical Engineering ". The Fachhochschule Frankfurt am Main, in its present form was created on August 1, 1971 by the union of various predecessor institutions, such as the Higher Technical School of Social Work, the State Higher business school (HWS ) and Interstate engineering schools.

Merging of the departments

1995 attracted the Department of Economics and 1998, the social divisions of the North West town on the Nibelungenplatz. As part of the steps of a reform process, the university has established basic goals and given a new organizational structure. With effect from 1 July 2001 it was decided to combine the then thirteen departments to four subject areas:

The departments of A = Architecture, Civil Engineering and B = G = Geodesy = Surveying go back to the Founded in 1908, Royal Baugewerkschule for civil engineering.
The departments of Electrical Engineering E =, F = precision engineering, mechanical engineering and M = V = process technology go back to the state, founded in 1920 united engineering schools.
The Department of Social P = goes back to the Founded in 1954, Urban Youth Leaders Seminar.
The Department of S = social work goes back to 1944, founded the State-approved Women's School of Public Care.
The Department of W = economy finally emerged from the company founded in 1966 national higher business school.
The departments MND = mathematics and science and
SuK = Social and Cultural Studies have been first created with the establishment of the University of Applied Sciences 1971; they had not initially own students, but were pure service departments, especially for the students of engineering faculties.
As the 13th Division in 1993 yet added C = Care = care and health.

These 13 departments were spread over two locations:

Nibelungenplatz: On the one hand Kleiststrasse in the old building of the " State School " were the subject areas A, B, G and SuK, on the other hand, in the old " engineering school " the specialist areas E, F, M, V and MND. The two sides Kleiststrasse were mentally scarcely less far apart than the Nibelungenplatz and the North West town.
Northwest City: social pedagogy, social work, nursing and business.

Merger talks with the University of Applied Sciences Wiesbaden

The President of the University of Applied Sciences Frankfurt am Main and the University of Applied Sciences Wiesbaden agreed in September 2005, the Strategic Partnership of Universities of Applied Sciences Frankfurt and Wiesbaden. This was due to the changes in the German higher education system ( Bachelor / Master) and the resulting growing competition between colleges, universities and vocational colleges. On September 14, 2007, established by the President control group presented an issues paper for the merger of the two universities as Hochschule Rhein Main - University of Applied Sciences ago. On 12 December 2007, the merger was soundly rejected by the Senate of the University of Applied Sciences Frankfurt am Main, although before the Senate of the University of Applied Sciences Wiesbaden had agreed to this.

Mission Statement and Development Plan

The FH Frankfurt is characterized by its urban location and its internationality. So the 11,000 students come from about 100 nations. The teaching and the curriculum have made an international orientation, eg by double degrees with foreign partner universities, extensive exchange rates for students and teachers and international weeks. This was stated as a reason to rename the College on July 1, 2014 in Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences.

Structural development

Campus Building 1

The completion of the " campus buildings 1" with a total cost of approximately 53 million Euros to rent the BCN- building could be finished at that time. It also allowed structural improvements such as the creation of a computer science center, computer rooms and rooms for research projects and spare rooms for be torn areas of the buildings 2, 3 and 4 The space program includes approximately 12,000 m² of floor space, in a new building (Building 1) and a cultivation were implemented to the existing building 2. Larger areas rented again in BCN - now were - due to the growth of the university.

Campus Building 2

With the " campus buildings 2 " further spatial overload the Fachhochschule was dismantled. In addition, a contiguous campus area was created from the former site of the University of Applied Sciences and the former site of " Philipp Holzmann School" including the Kleiststraße between Alleenring and Gleimstraße. For this, the Kleiststraße was deconsecrated for public transport and integrated into the campus. Appropriate resolutions were adopted by the competent bodies of the City of Frankfurt am Main in 2002.
