During and immediately after World War I, teaching was moved to local schools, as the Technikum site was in use as a military hospital and then until 1920 as an administrative building.

[3] In 1939, the German Labour Front purchased the institution from the Hoepke family as well as the building itself from the municipality of Bingen as the previous landlord of the Technikum.

[4] After damage incurred to the building during World War II, the college was reincorporated as Rheinische Ingenieurschule Bingen in 1946, lectures resumed in various locations around town.

In 1964, the school was renamed Staatliche Rheinische Ingenieurschule, and in 1971 it was incorporated as Abteilung Bingen into the newly founded Fachhochschule Rheinland-Pfalz, together with an agricultural college, the Ingenieurschule für Landbau in Bad Kreuznach.

In 1987, a new site was inaugurated in the neighbouring town of Büdesheim, which had been incorporated into Bingen in 1929.
