Structural Design A is a run through the principles of structural design, starting with the basics and how they are applied but focusing on how structural systems and structural logic is reflected in architecture and how architecture and structure play together. It is seen as an essential foundation for integrated design and the ability to deploy structure intelligently in architecture.… 2026W, Vorlesung und Übungen, 3.0 ECTS

Structural Design B focuses on the qualitative analysis and integration of structural engineering and structural design in a well known and well documented building. The aim of the course is for students to understand how structure is used as part of the design, how structure shapes architecture and tectonics and how different structural systems find their reflection in architectural form.… 2026W, Vorlesung und Übungen, 3.0 ECTS

In the following you find outlined what we expect from the integration of structural design into your project and from your submission. Each student is free to give certain aspects of the integration of structural design priority. However, there should equally be consistency in the level of conceptual structural design across the entire project. Structure is a key part of… 2026W/2027S, wissenschaftliches Seminar, 3.0 ECTS

TEAM-BUILDING MEDIATION The seminar deals with mediation and team development in planning and design processes. Architectural projects are produced by interdisciplinary teams; wherever artistic visions and individual ideas meet, conflict arises regularly. Students analyse team dynamics and build their communication, leadership and cooperation skills. They learn practical techniques for identifying, analysing and constructively working through conflict at an early stage.… 2027S, wissenschaftliches Seminar, 2.0 ECTS

Dieses Seminar vermittelt numerische Simulationsmethoden und die grundlegenden Prinzipien ihrer Anwendung in der ingenieurwissenschaftlichen Analyse. Der Schwerpunkt liegt auf der Strukturanalyse und der Finite-Elemente-Modellierung. Neben den theoretischen Grundlagen erwerben die Studierenden praktische Kompetenzen in der Implementierung und Anwendung von Simulationswerkzeugen. Nach einer Einführung in die wesentlichen Konzepte der Programmierung lernen die Teilnehmenden, eigene Simulationswerkzeuge zu entwickeln und bestehende zu erweitern,… 2026W, wissenschaftliches Seminar, 3.0 ECTS

Theory of Arch 1 presents a survey of architectural theory from around 1970ies to this day, with an emphasis on contemporary developments since the nineties. The course will focus on questions of disciplinarity, form, mediums and media, as well as political, environmental and technological issues facing architecture today. In order to trace the transformation of thought, we will discuss each… 2026W, Vorlesung und Übungen, 3.0 ECTS

The course addresses spatio-temporal interrelations between human and non-human living environments. By means of individual narrations we explore various kinds of interdependencies, paying particular attention to seemingly contradictory assessments of scales and angles of observation. Drawing from a distorted view of a genre that may be coined speculative documentary the course puts emphasis on developing a sense of reality that… 2027S, wissenschaftliches Seminar, 3.0 ECTS

This seminar is looking at the relationship between architecture, embodiment and spatio-political dimensions of utopia. It is also an exploration of architecture’s agency between social realities and creative fiction assuming that possible futures have been imagined before in various ways. By revisiting past (architectural) utopias/futures through altered viewpoints - by moving the “view from nowhere” to a situated standpoint -… 2027S, wissenschaftliches Seminar, 1.5 ECTS

Urban Strategies and Theory of the Landscape looks at different kinds of urbanized landscapes, and the relationship between the natural and built environment. Attention is given to intricate interrelations between densely built cores and seemingly supportive hinterlands. In lectures, readings and seminar work, by means of selected examples, paradigms and concepts of urban spatial organizational principles are critically reflected to… 2026W, wissenschaftliches Seminar, 3.0 ECTS

Urban Strategies Integration provides a framework for articulating and deepening an urban / landscape aspect of the pre-diploma project. In group discussions and individual meetings, students are guided through the process of formulating and testing a hypothesis by anchoring their reasoning in related discourses on a relevant focus of their choice. Note: Individual projects do not have to tackle large-scale… 2026W/2027S, wissenschaftliches Seminar, 3.0 ECTS
