History
HTW Berlin is the result of the merger of various institutions.[5]
1874 – founding of the Fachschule für Dekomponieren, Komponieren und Musterzeichnen (School of Engineering and Technical Drawing), which later became the Berlin School of Textiles and Fashion. It then became the Engineering School of Clothing Technology, and was incorporated into the Engineering College of Berlin (Ingenieurhochschule Berlin) in 1990.
1948 – the Engineering School for Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Civil Engineering was founded. This was renamed the Engineering College of Berlin in 1988.
1991 – Technische Fachhochschule Berlin (TFH, now Berliner Hochschule für Technik) was charged with founding the FHTW, unifying the Engineering College and other colleges as well as the HfÖ College of Economics, located at five different places around the former East Berlin. The TFH was given responsibility for setting up the administration and hiring new teachers, although much of the staff remained with their respective schools.
1994 – FHTW was formally declared independent.
1996 – integration of the University of Applied Sciences German Telecom into the school.
2009 – name changed from FHTW to HTW Berlin and official opening of the completed Wilhelminenhof Campus.
2019 – HTW celebrated its 25th anniversary.
