The university is among the best applied sciences universities in Germany with over 150 partner universities worldwide. The university is located in Bavaria with campuses in W\u00fcrzburg and Schweinfurt.Table of ContentsHistory[edit]Faculties[edit]Faculties in Schweinfurt[edit]Faculties in W\u00fcrzburg[edit]Profile[edit]Research & Established Institutes of Research[edit]I.A.L.

August 1971 with 1566 students and courses in seven subjects. The W\u00fcrzburg campus offered courses in architecture, civil engineering, business administration and graphic design, while in Schweinfurt students could choose between electrical engineering, mechanical engineering and industrial engineering.In the following years new courses were added including social work (1972), plastics engineering (1973), computer science (1975), nursing management (1995), business economics (1998), Business informatics (2000), media management (2000), computational engineering (2003), logistics (2008) and robotics (2020).Between 1991 and 2000 the university developed a new campus in Aschaffenburg, initially offering business economics and from 1997 electrical engineering. In 2000, this evolved into the independent University of Applied Sciences Aschaffenburg.  Opening ceremony of the Aula in SchweinfurtOn 14. February 2003, the then minister of science, Hans Zehetmair, laid a foundation for a circular teaching building in Schweinfurt extending to 3000m\u00b2 and costing almost 14.5 million euros. In the basement of the building there are modern student computer pool rooms. On the first floor a spacious assembly hall (Aula) offers a venue for events and conferences. arranged in a circle around the central space are deans’ offices, administrative offices and the largest auditorium of the building. On the second and third floor of the building, constructed of reinforced concrete and aluminium, there are air-conditioned multimedia rooms. The building was opened by the minister of science, Thomas Goppel, on 4. October 2004. Since then, most of the courses in Schweinfurt have been held in these new premises. The older buildings in Schweinfurt have mostly been vacated and since 2004 been extensively refurbished.In 2006, the naming rights for the biggest lecture hall of the university (located on the W\u00fcrzburg campus) were acquired by Aldi-S\u00fcd. In the same year, Sparkasse W\u00fcrzburg offered to sponsor another lecture hall. Within a short time the following companies were also sponsoring buildings which were named after them:In 2008, the name of the university was changed from Fachhochschule W\u00fcrzburg-Schweinfurt to Hochschule f\u00fcr angewandte Wissenschaften \u2013 Fachhochschule W\u00fcrzburg-Schweinfurt. In 1 May 2011 the official name of the university became Hochschule f\u00fcr Angewante Wissenschaften W\u00fcrzburg-Schweinfurt, and the official English name University of Applied Sciences W\u00fcrzburg-Schweinfurt. However the logo with the abbreviation FH|W-S was still used.In 2011 new buildings were acquired in both towns. In W\u00fcrzburg, the new auditorium and laboratory building in Sanderheinrichsleitenweg was given to the university at the beginning of September 2011. In Schweinfurt, a new building located at Gr\u00fcner Markt, opposite Kilianskirche was erected by the housing company Stadt- und Wohnbau GmbH (SWG). It cost about 9.6 million euro and the State of Bavaria has rented it from SWG for a minimum of 12 years. As second Schweinfurt campus, it accommodates 720 students in 7 auditoriums. It was officially opened on 10 August 2011.[1]On 1st January 2023, the university was accorded the status of a technical university. The name was changed to Technische Hochschule W\u00fcrzburg-Schweinfurt, abbreviated THWS, with the official English name Technical University of Applied Sciences W\u00fcrzburg-Schweinfurt.[2][3]Faculties[edit]There are ten faculties offering more than 40 bachelor’s and master’s degree programmes in the field of STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics), visual design, social sciences, language, and economy\/business administration. Six of them are located only in the city of W\u00fcrzburg, three of them only in the city of Schweinfurt. The Faculty of Applied Natural Sciences and Humanities is present at both study locations.The University of Applied Sciences W\u00fcrzburg-Schweinfurt is not only committed to a forward-looking, practice-oriented education, but it also attaches great importance to its faculties’ modern equipment providing everything students need to successfully complete their respective degree programme.Faculties in Schweinfurt[edit]Applied Natural Sciences and HumanitiesElectrical EngineeringMechanical EngineeringBusiness and EngineeringMechatronic EngineeringLogisticsRobotics engineering (October 2020)Faculties in W\u00fcrzburg[edit]Applied Natural Sciences and HumanitiesApplied Social SciencesArchitecture and Civil EngineeringVisual DesignComputer Science and Business Information SystemsPlastics Engineering and SurveyingEconomics and Business AdministrationProfile[edit]The University of Applied Sciences W\u00fcrzburg-Schweinfurt is the third largest university of applied sciences in Bavaria with 8654 students (winter semester 2011\/12), over 200 lecturers (WS 2011\/12), 20 lecturers with special tasks and 298 other members of staff.Currently, the 10 faculties offer 30 courses finishing with a diploma, bachelor or master’s degree.The University of Applied Sciences W\u00fcrzburg-Schweinfurt is a member of MedienCampus Bayern, the umbrella organization for media education in Bavaria.Research & Established Institutes of Research[edit]The university has six interdisciplinary organised partly application-oriented research institutes, in which besides undergraduate especially graduate students find an ideal opportunity to practice “research on object”.I.A.L. (Institute Of Applied Logistics)[edit]The Institute for Applied Logistics ( IAL) as a research institute is a central scientific institution of the W\u00fcrzburg-Schweinfurt University of Applied Sciences and was founded on 01.10.2006. Like the FHWS, the institute has locations in W\u00fcrzburg and Schweinfurt.In the IAL, all research activities of the University of Applied Sciences W\u00fcrzburg-Schweinfurt in the field of logistics are bundled in an interdisciplinary manner. The basis for this is a flow-oriented understanding of logistics in terms of supply chain management.[citation needed][edit]BVL [4]– Confederation of Logistics (The logistics network for specialists and executives.

In addition to the Bad Neustadt location, they also use laboratories and institutes at the Schweinfurt location. The main topics are currently bundled in five scientific working groups: battery systems, power electronics, electrical machines, control engineering and electrical power engineering.[citation needed][edit]IEHT – Institute for Power Engineering and High Voltage Technology at the Competence Centre Mainfranken[edit]The Institute for Power Engineering and High Voltage Technology (IEHT) was founded on 1 October 2011 at FHWS and forms part of the Competence Centre Mainfranken at the department in Schweinfurt. It serves as technological interface between the laboratories of the institute, the power engineering and high voltage technology laboratories of the faculties, the Technology Transfer Centre for E-mobility as well as external project partners.[citation needed]Institute for Biomedical Engineering[edit]IREM – Institute for Rescue, Emergency and Disaster Management[edit]The Institute for Rescue, Emergency and Disaster Management was founded in the summer semester of 2014 and is affiliated with the IAL, the second research-based institution of the faculty with the aim of transferring interdisciplinary knowledge into usable projects and products To raise college. Of particular importance in IREM is the integration of structures and experiences of members of public authorities and organizations with security tasks (BOS).[citation needed]University Media Center (HMZ)[edit]The Hochschulmedienzentrum (HMZ) is a service provider in matters of media in the context of audiovisual productions, university projects, lectures and theses available to students and lecturers of all faculties.
