The best of both worlds: in its teaching as well as its research, Hochschule Geisenheim University combines the strengths of a traditional research university and a university of applied sciences or Fachhochschule.
We offer our students eight practice-oriented bachelor degree programs, each leading to a professional qualification, and nine research-based master degree programs. Our doctor...al students complete their PhDs in co-operation with renowned German and foreign universities; students and scientists alike benefit from our strong international network of partners.
Our research is equally application- and theory-based, with the main focus on the field of special crops in viticulture and horticulture and their diverse production and processing areas. We combine this with the fields of fresh produce logistics, food safety, business administration and marketing. Planning and design are two further key areas encompassing landscape architecture, landscape gardening and environmental conservation. It is this diversity and international approach that define the Geisenheim Profile.
Our aim, our direction, our values. We want to define a new form of university, bringing our knowledge into public use through the consistent combining of academia and practice, together with lifelong learning. The combination of studying, career and family is also a major part of our responsibility as a certified family-friendly university.
We have an equal responsibility towards our students, teaching staff, industry, research and development, public communities and administration and political and business decision makers, as well as being firmly part of the region. Our university culture is built on personal commitment and open, mutually-respectful communication.
Hochschule Geisenheim University was founded on 1st January 2013 as a “New Type” Hochschule, following a concept appraisal by the German Council of Science and Humanities (Wissenschaftsrat). The new university is a result of the merger between the Geisenheim Research Institute (Forschungsanstalt Geisenheim) and the Geisenheim faculty of the RheinMain University of Applied Sciences (today: Hochschule RheinMain), and has its roots in the “Royal Prussian Institute of Pomology and Viticulture” which was founded in 1872 by Eduard von Lade, a wealthy citizen of Geisenheim.
