From November 1946 the academy was dissolved and became the department of applied arts at the University of Fine Arts , where Berndl taught as a professor until he retired on February 22, 1947. His successors were Harald Roth (1910–1991) until 1953 and then Sep Ruf (1908–1982) until 1972 . As a professor emeritus, Berndl was an honorary member of the academy around 1953.
