Isny Scientific and Technical Academy

The Isny Scientific and Technical Academy (nta), formerly the Scientific and Technical Academy Prof. Dr. Grübler , consists of several state-recognized vocational colleges for scientific professions in Isny im Allgäu .

It was founded in Ravensburg in 1945 as a training center for chemical-technical assistants under the name Chemieschule Dr. Grübler founded and relocated to Isny ​​in 1950. From 1961, the first engineering courses (initially physical technology and chemistry ) were established. In 1973 the nta received state recognition as a university of applied sciences .

Since 2006, all diploma courses offered at the University of Applied Sciences have been accredited by the ASIIN agency . For the 2009/2010 winter semester, the previous diploma courses at the University of Applied Sciences were converted to the Bachelor of Science degree. Most recently, the Isny ​​University of Applied Sciences offered a bachelor's degree in chemistry (with a focus on general chemistry or food chemistry and environmental analysis), pharmaceutical chemistry, computer science and physics engineering. The offered bachelor's degree programs were also accredited by the accreditation agency ASIIN eV. The nta University has not accepted any more students since the 2016 winter semester. In October 2015, the Science Council refused to re-accredit the institution as a university.

The vocational colleges of the nta (also called vocational schools in other federal states) offer two-year (PTA 2.5 years) school-based vocational training for technical assistants, such as assistant for information and communication technology AIK or ITA, biotechnological assistant, BioTA, chemical-technical assistant / in CTA and pharmaceutical technical assistant / in PTA .

During the training at one of the nta vocational colleges, the technical college entrance qualification can optionally be acquired by passing an FHR additional program and thus the requirement for studying at a technical college in BW. A technical college entrance qualification acquired during the PTA training is valid nationwide.

For more than 60 years, a preparatory course (March to August) has been offered as an introduction to training as a technical assistant or as a career option in the MINT area.
