Fresh air and new ideas
Kiel University of Applied Sciences as we know it was founded on 1 August 1969 as a result of the merger of several state-run schools of engineering and technical colleges which in themselves can look back on a history of more than 100 years. Its campus is located directly on the waterfront of Kiel's firth.
With its approximately 5,600 students, the Kiel University of Applied Sciences is the largest institution of its kind in Schleswig-Holstein. Those interested in studying here can choose from a wide range of options: around 30 Bachelor's and Master's degrees, supplementary degrees and continuing education courses are offered by the faculties of Computer Science & Electrical Engineering, Agricultural Sciences, Mechanical Engineering, Media, Social Work & Health, and Business Management. The campus is located in city of Kiel, the capital of Schleswig-Holstein, although the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences is to be found not far from Kiel in the depths of rural Osterrönfeld, near the North Sea Canal City of Rendsburg.
