WesterwaldCampus Höhr-Grenzhausen
The roots of ceramic training at the Koblenz University of Applied Sciences in Höhr-Grenzhausen ( Lage ) go back to the 19th century. Today, the field of materials technology glass and ceramics (department of building-plastics-materials) and the institute for artistic ceramics and glass are located there. Cooperation with ceramic facilities in the immediate vicinity (e.g. the Research Institute for Inorganic Materials Glass / Ceramics GmbH or the DIFK Feurfestinstitut) gives students further training and work opportunities.

History of the college
With the exception of the "Materials Technology Glass and Ceramics" course, whose roots go back to the 19th century, the beginnings of the Koblenz University of Applied Sciences lie in the period immediately after the end of the Second World War. Many apartments and industrial plants were destroyed at that time, and the need for consumer goods of all kinds was very high. There was a lack of trained technicians and engineers for the reconstruction.
In order to remedy the shortage of civil engineers and architects, the city of Koblenz founded a construction school in autumn 1948. Two makeshift rooms in the former Antonius College of the Capuchin monastery in Ehrenbreitstein served as the first training facility. With effect from September 15, 1949, the "Technical courses Andernach" and the building school were merged and the so-called "United Technical Training Institutes Koblenz" began teaching in the winter semester 1949/50. Eleven full-time and six part-time teachers taught a total of around 300 students in the three departments of building construction, civil engineering and mechanical engineering. In the winter semester of 1951/52, electrical engineering was added.
In the early 1970s, the Rhineland-Palatinate University of Applied Sciences was established , into which the Koblenz engineering school, which has since been nationalized, was integrated as one of a total of seven departments.
In the course of restructuring in 1971, the previously purely technically oriented courses were expanded to include business administration I and II as well as social work and social education. In addition, the previously independent ceramics training in Höhr-Grenzhausen (since 1879 "Ceramic Technical School", 1953 "Higher Technical School", 1957 "Engineering and Factory School") was incorporated into the Koblenz Department as the "Ceramics" department in 1971. In 1987 the Institute for Artistic Ceramics was founded in Höhr-Grenzhausen. The Rhineland-Palatinate University of Applied Sciences ceased to exist on September 1, 1996. It was converted into seven independent universities of applied sciences in Bingen, Kaiserslautern, Koblenz, Ludwigshafen, Mainz, Trier and Worms.
As a result of a citizens' initiative at the end of 1987 / beginning of 1988, the originally intended expansion at the Alt-Karthause site was abandoned and in January 1996 the foundation stone was finally laid for the first phase of the urgently needed new building. After around two and a half years of construction, the “Mechanical Engineering”, “Electrical Engineering and Information Technology” departments found a new home in the new building on Konrad-Zuse-Straße.
The Koblenz University of Applied Sciences also started teaching at its new location in Remagen in the 1998/99 winter semester. The RheinAhrCampus, which was financed with funds from the Bonn / Berlin Compensation, started with the courses in health and social economy, sports management and physical technology. In the 1999/2000 winter semester, the courses in technical business administration and applied mathematics followed.
The groundbreaking ceremony on September 6, 2005 marked the start of the second construction phase in Koblenz, which cost around 48 million euros. Another milestone was reached on November 25th, 2009 with the inauguration of this second construction phase on the Karthauser. This means that all four Koblenz departments and administration are combined in one building complex.
On July 17, 2012, the Koblenz University of Applied Sciences was renamed the Koblenz University of Applied Sciences, but still retains the status of a university of applied sciences.
