    Master's in Smart City Solutions

    About

    Do you want to become an expert in sustainable, liveable and smart cities? Welcome to the Master's in Smart City Solutions at the University of Applied Sciences Stuttgart! The concept of smart cities is a city vision that has been acknowledged and promoted as a new paradigm around the world for growing cities and declining rural areas. The development and implementation of smart city strategies requires interdisciplinary knowledge in a variety of adjacent fields. We will prepare you for these challenges with our new Master's programme in Smart City Solutions (SCS). Insights into Global Challenges Our international Master's programme in Smart City Solutions prepares planners, architects, engineers, economists, ecologists, sociologists, entrepreneurs and graduates of related disciplines for implemen­ting smart city technology. You will gain insights about global challenges in urban development strategies like climate change, extreme weather events, limited planetary resources and water shortages amongst others. SCS covers eight key aspects of smart city solutions and processes: smart governance, smart mobility, smart energy, smart resources, smart citizens, smart urbanism, smart buildings and smart infrastructure. You will learn how to manage these challenges with data-based decision support tools. In our programme, we combine modules of three existing faculties of the University of Applied Sciences and we also collaborate with the Institute for Applied Research. Learning by Doing In Smart City Solutions, you will get to apply the gathered theoreti­cal knowledge in a case study project during the study programme. It will be a living lab project in collaboration with real city stakeholders.
