Learning Objectives
The module Master-Thesis Sustainable Design seeks to establish the theoretical and professional frame to an integrated, intellectual and specific architectural debate and project making within the concentration Sustainable Design.
The topics center on issues to develop critical positions towards subjective reasoning in the field of sustainable design and to further the ability to root these positions in the theory of building construction and technology, as well as in the political, sociological, and cultural context of contemporary architecture and society.
One or several excursions are complementary to the project studio work.
The aim of the module is to provide students with the necessary architectural tools and intellectual instruments and avareness to integrate the knowledge aquired in the entire MSc Degree-Program into a responsible and sustainable professional behaviour.
The Master-Thesis student is expected to submit a complete Thesis-Project that instigates the work of the students in the lower semesters and represents the architectural and intellectual culture of the concentration Sustainable Design.

Learning Objectives
Today's City is everywhere and at the same time nowhere. The old antipoles of city and countryside have been dissolved and are substituted by hybrid spatial and functional nets of urban, suburban and rural fragments. This spatial reality challenges architecture and calls for a new definition of its role and its methods.
The module Master-Thesis Design UrbanScape seeks to integrate architecture, landscape and contemporary concepts in urban and spatial research into a new design concept. It explores the phenomena and processes of actual settlement und landscape by enriching architectural modes of operation and perception with social and cultural aspects. The module Design UrbanScape relocates the role and the potentials of architecture in the contemporary spatial realities.
One or several excursions are complementary to the project studio work.
The aim of the module is to provide students with the necessary architectural tools and intellectual instruments and avareness to integrate the knowledge aquired in the entire MSc Degree-Program into a responsible and sustainable professional behaviour.
The Master-Thesis student is expected to submit a complete Thesis-Project that instigates the work of the students in the lower semesters and represents the architectural and intellectual culture of the concentration Design UrbanScape.
