Section overview
Description
The University of Applied Sciences Südwestfalen was founded on the 1st of January 2002. It is a merger of the former ‚Märkische University of Applied Sciences‘ with its campuses in Hagen and Iserlohn and the former campuses of Meschede and Soest of the University of Paderborn. The university has its main campus in Iserlohn and campuses in Hagen, Meschede and Soest. The university has its main focuses on * Engineering * Natural Sciences * Information and Communication Techology * Business * Agricultural Economics
