Engineering college for seafaring Warnemünde / Wustrow
Nautical officers for merchant shipping and deep-sea fishing in the GDR as well as technical officers for ship operating technology, ship electronics and intelligence services were trained at the Engineering College for Maritime Studies in Warnemünde / Wustrow (IHS) .
history
The Warnemünde / Wustrow Maritime Engineering College was formed in 1969 through the merger of the Wustrow Maritime School in Wustrow (Fischland), founded in 1846, and the Warnemünde Engineering School of Ship Technology in Rostock- Warnemünde .
The Wustrow Seafaring School was founded in 1846 as the Grand Ducal Mecklenburg Navigation School and was the oldest seafaring school in Germany. It was renamed the Wustrow Seafaring School in 1916 .
Part of the training in Wustrow was taken over in 1954 by the Warnemünder Engineering School for Shipbuilding Technology. When the Warnemünde / Wustrow Marine Engineering School was founded in 1969, the two institutions were merged. In 1989 the name was changed to the Warnemünde-Wustrow University of Seafaring .
The training took place in the sections ship command, ship electronics / intelligence, ship operation technology and ship building technology, from 1986 also sea economics. The gradual development took place from 1972 with the receipt of diploma law. In 1980 the university received the right to award doctorates for the academic degree of doctoral engineer .
The Maritime College was dissolved in 1990. The University of Rostock took over the legal succession of the university . The university archive is stored in the Rostock University Archives, the library holdings in the Rostock University Library . The Wustrow university section was closed in 1992, after Brand, at the end of the summer semester.
The directors of the IHS were Hermann Schneider 1969–1972, Eckhard Moeck 1972–1989 and Jürgen Lüsch 1990.
The University of Rostock took over the training as legal successor to the engineering college in 1992.
In the same year, the maritime sector was assigned to the University of Wismar as a new department .
