Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences (German: Hochschule Rhein-Waal) or HSRW, is a 2009-founded German university of applied sciences based in the cities of Kleve and Kamp-Lintfort, Germany. It is internationally-oriented and delivers a variety of English- and German-language study programmes across four faculties: Technology and Bionics, Life Sciences, Society and Economics, and Communication and Environment. The university is named after the rivers Rhine and Waal. The state government of North Rhine-Westphalia organized a competition for the creation of three new Universities on 28 May 2008. The applicants were Kleve and the "We-4"-cities (Kamp-Lintfort, Moers, Neukirchen and Rheinberg), but the concept of separate universities was discarded. Instead, the two competing candidates Kleve and Kamp-Lintfort were assigned joint responsibility to establish a two-campus university in November 2008. In April 2009, Marie-Louise Klotz and Martin Goch were appointed president and vice president of the university. The official founding date of the university was 1 May 2009. More information...
