The Presidential Board is the university’s managing body and consists of the President, three Vice Presidents and the Head of Administration.
President of Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences is Prof. Dr. Kai-Oliver Schocke. His term of office runs from April 1, 2023 until March 31, 2029.

From 1995 to 1998, these departments were spread over two locations. Social pedagogy, Social work, Nursing, and Business were situated at Nordweststadt; the others were operated from Nibelungenplatz, at Kleiststrasse in the old building of the "State School" and in the old "engineering school".
In July 2001 it was decided to combine the then thirteen departments into four subject areas.
In September 2005 The Presidents of the University of Applied Sciences of Frankfurt and the Wiesbaden University of Applied Sciences agreed to a strategic partnership of the two Universities of Applied Sciences of Frankfurt and Wiesbaden. This was due to the changes in the German higher education system (Bachelor / Master) and thereby increasing competition between colleges, universities, and vocational colleges. On 14 September 2007 a steering group was set up by the President by issuing a paper for the merger of the two Universities of Applied Sciences as Hochschule Rhein-Main – University of Applied Sciences. However, on 12 December 2007, the merger was rejected by the Senate of the University of Applied Sciences Frankfurt am Main, although it had already been approved by the Senate of the Wiesbaden University of Applied Sciences.
