50 Years of FHWS
This year, FHWS celebrates its 50th birthday!
Since its founding in 1971, Würzburg and Schweinfurt have been studying, teaching, researching, and working together. FHWS, however, has developed constantly over the last 50 years.
We are looking forward to celebrating our anniversary together with you - this year, for the time being in virtual events, as well as in 2022 hopefully also face-to-face again.

All about the anniversary
The founding of FHWS
The founding years of FHWS were shaped by student protests and educational reforms: More education. More space. More participation. Dr. Jürgen Herzog, the first chancellor of FHWS, tells about tumultous times for higher education institutions, students and professors.

FHWS in the course of time
FHWS was established by merging the Balthasar-Neumann-Polytechnic School of Lower Franconia in Würzburg, the "Höhere Wirtschaftsschule" (a business-oriented secondary school) of Würzburg and the "Werkkunstschule" (a business- and crafts-oriented secondary school) of Würzburg.
