It has over 13,000 students and 75 programs in areas of engineering, computer science, business, culture and design.[3]
History
HTW Berlin is the result of the merger of various institutions.[4]
1874 – founding of the Technical School for Demontage, Montage and Design, which later became the Textile and Fashion School of Berlin. It then became the Engineering School for Clothing Technology, and was incorporated into the Engineering College of Berlin, in 1990.
1948 – the Engineering School for Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Civil Engineering was founded. This was renamed the Engineering College in 1988.
1991 – Technische Fachhochschule Berlin, (TFH, now Beuth Hochschule), was charged with founding the FHTW, unifying the Engineering College and other colleges as well as the Economics College, 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 – the name changed from FHTW into HTW Berlin.
