Dresden University of Applied Sciences (Hochschule für Technik und Wirtschaft Dresden) was founded in 1992. It is the second largest post-secondary educational institution in Dresden, the capital of Saxony. Engineering, economics, design, and 'green' disciplines constitute the four pillars that more than 40 forward-looking diploma, bachelor's, and master's degree programmes in civil engineering/architecture, electrical engineering, information technology/mathematics, product design, mechanical and process engineering, and business administration are based upon. These degree programmes include a number of subjects that are unique to post-secondary education in Saxony such as agriculture, horticulture, landscape planning and development, environmental monitoring and analysis, geoinformatics and surveying, as well as geoinformatics and cartography.
