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.
