Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences in DEU

Since its founding on May 1, 2009, Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences has grown beyond all expectations. The resonance from students both in Germany and around the world has been overwhelming – after a mere six years of operation, the university reached and exceeded its founding objective of a minimum enrolment of 7,300 students. 

Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences currently offers 25 undergraduate degree programs and eleven graduate programs across four faculties and two campuses: the Faculties of Technology and Bionics, Life Sciences and Society and Economics in Kleve, and the Faculty of Communication and Environment in Kamp-Lintfort.

 Our programs cover a broad range of topics from the natural sciences, economics, engineering and technology, the humanities, social and health sciences. Our professors and lecturers are young, accomplished, and approachable researchers who enjoy working closely with students to help them reach their full potential.

As a university of applied sciences, the focus of our degree programs is on practical applications and real-world relevance. In all of our degree programs, for example, students learn the important fundamentals of business economics and law and are given numerous opportunities to develop interpersonal soft skills that are key for the business world, such as presentation and communication techniques, project management skills, social and intercultural skills, and conflict management strategies. 

Our objective at Rhine-Waal is to produce graduates who are ready to meet the real-world demands of both national and international job markets and excel at their new careers.
