Textile innovation for over 100 years

The Faculty of Textile and Clothing Technology is the oldest faculty at the Niederrhein University of Applied Sciences in Mönchengladbach. It is one of Europe's leading academic training centres for young textile Bachelor's and Master's students and can look back on a tradition of well over 100 years. It therefore has unrivalled textile expertise. Through consistent further development, the established faculty has adapted to global challenges. The international orientation is reflected in the range of German and English-language Bachelor's and Master's degree programmes, as well as the offer of a German-Chinese double degree. This comprehensive range of degree programmes gives graduates great flexibility and thus numerous additional opportunities at home and abroad. Around 20 per cent of students from abroad also take advantage of this. On this page you will find all the important topics, data and facts about our department.

Sustainability

The aspect of sustainability is incorporated into many courses in our Bachelor's and Master's degree programmes and plays a major role in teaching. We use sustainable materials or think about the timelessness of designs. Sustainability is part of the whole. Sustainability accompanies us in everything we do, design and how we want to live in the future.

The topic of sustainability also occupies us in research. The Research Institute for Textiles and Clothing (FTB) at the Niederrhein University of Applied Sciences carries out complex projects to improve sustainability in the textile processing chain.

The A.U.G.E. Institute and the EthNa Competence Centre CSR carry out research and development tasks in the field of CSR, ethics and sustainability through publicly funded programmes, but can also be commissioned directly by companies.

Quality assurance

Reaccreditation

The Faculty of Textile and Clothing Technology successfully completed the reaccreditation of all its degree programmes in spring 2017. Following assessment and approval, all certificates were issued by the Council.

Evaluation

The objective of the evaluation is:

  • Quality assurance and quality development in teaching, study programmes and continuing education
  • Promotion of quality-related internal communication within the university
  • Further development of the departments and the university through the implementation of study reform processes
  • Presentation of performance and accountability to members and relatives of the university, the state and society

The results of the internal evaluation are incorporated into the department's activities to improve the quality of teaching and learning and form the basis for the development of further measures. If you have any suggestions, you can submit them to the Dean of the Faculty at any time.
