RheinMain University of Applied Sciences was founded in 1971, when the engineering colleges in Geisenheim, Idstein and Rüsselsheim and a design school in Wiesbaden were combined into what was then still called Fachhochschule Wiesbaden. In September 2009, the university changed its name to RheinMain University. In January 2013, the Geisenheim faculty became a university of its own. The study locations in Wiesbaden and Rüsselsheim are now called RheinMain University of Applied Sciences Wiesbaden Rüsselsheim.
After the merging of the former 14 organizational units and Geisenheim becoming an independent institution, Hochschule RheinMain now has five faculties: The four Faculties of Architecture and Civil Engineering, Design – Computer Science – Media, Applied Social Sciences and Wiesbaden Business School are located in Wiesbaden, the Faculty of Engineering is situated in nearby Rüsselsheim.
