Urbanism – Urban and Landscape Studies and Design

About

The enormous ecological, economic, social and aesthetic transformations accompanying global urbanization represent a challenge for all spatial disciplines, each of which responds in its own unique way.

Addressing these challenges as they impact societies, urban spaces, our ecosystems and climate change requires interaction between all spatial disciplines. The term "interdisciplinary urbanism" is meant to describe a practice that reacts at different levels on the basis of research and teaching.

The master's degree program in Urbanism - Urban Landscape Studies and Design aims to create interdisciplinary solutions for the challenges of global urbanization.
