25 Years Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg

25 Jahre Logo rosa version 20200302 3 zu 2
The year 2020 is a special one for Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg. It is celebrating its 25th anniversary. Established as a result of the compensatory agreements of the Federal Republic of Germany for the relocation of the government to Berlin, the university can now look back on a successful development.

The anniversary year is shaped by the Corona pandemic. Therefore, the university had to postpone its 25th anniversary celebration.It was originally scheduled for May 2020 in the former plenary chamber of the German Parliament in the World Conference Center Bonn (WCCB), but is now scheduled for January 2021.

On the occasion of its anniversary, the university would not only like to look back on the past quarter century with its students, employees, friends and sponsors. Rather, the focus is on the future. Therefore, the university has launched the campaign #whatsfutureforyou to celebrate its anniversary: Members (students, employees, alumni) of all universities are called upon to present their vision of studying the future in a video. In the Video Award, the best contribution will be selected by a jury and awarded a prize during the celebrations.

25 years is just the beginning

If it didn't exist, it would have to be invented: Bonn-Rhine-Sieg University of Applied Sciences. Without it, something would be missing in the Rhein-Sieg district, in the region and far beyond.


The history of our university

The university's first degree courses started in autumn 1995 - since then, the programme has seen constant growth, expansion of the number of study locations and the range of courses on offer, as well as an extension of the university's range of subjects.
