The Ernst Abbe University of Applied Sciences Jena (short: EAH Jena ) was founded on October 1, 1991 as the Jena University of Applied Sciences and was the first university of applied sciences in the new federal states. Since the summer semester 2012 it has been named after the scientist, entrepreneur and social reformer Ernst Abbe .
history
While the course began in the 1991 winter semester with 272 students, around 4500 students are currently enrolled at EAH Jena. After extensive renovation and redesign, all departments, the university administration and the central library with an integrated patent and research center have been located on campus in the Carl-Zeiss-Promenade since the end of 2001.
In the summer semester 2012, was Fachhochschule Jena in Ernst-Abbe-Fachhochschule - University of Applied Sciences renamed. Due to a change in the Thuringian University Act, another name change followed in October 2014 to Ernst-Abbe-Hochschule Jena .
