The sustainable operation within a complex architectural or urban environment is critically analysed and applied. The Bachelor’s Thesis students take part in one of the Advanced Studios within the Bachelor´s degree programme. The thesis includes a developed hypothesis which is verified (or falsified) within the context of a design project.

Guided project work in the design studio. A seminar week focussing on the studio topic is an integral part of the design studio.

After successful completion of the course, students will be able to

Successful completion of all four foundation studios and one Advanced Studio within the Bachelor's degree programme.

Minimum 75% compulsory attendance, continuous assessment, midterm and final reviews.
The final grade is calculated according to the weighting of the following components: design project (60%), final presentation (20%) and thesis book (20%).

The Bachelor's Thesis comprises the design and production of the Bachelor's thesis book, in which the entire research and design process of the design project is documented. The formal aspects of the Bachelor's Thesis are described in the Bachelor's Thesis regulations. The thesis book can be written in German or English.

AI techniques play an increasingly important role for modern security mechanisms. They are crucial for timely detection of attacks, discovery and analysis of security vulnerabilities, analysis of malicious software. On the other hand, AI methods themselves can be victims of data manipulation and poisoning, or be used by attackers for malicious purposes. AI and Security provides on overview of selected applications of AI techniques in security and reveals the fundamental mechanisms required for assessment of security of AI. Specific topics covered by the course include but are not limited to the following:

• AI methods for intrusion detection
• Malware analysis by means of AI methods
• AI methods for network security
• Data manipulation attacks against AI methods
• Security of AI in practical context
• Offensive AI

Effective communication requires generosity. By contrast, a "competitive" atmosphere - where ideas are shut down, and where each person attempts to block the other or seeks to raise their profile at the cost of the others - is enemy number one for successful communication. Trust can be created when people are free to assume that their ideas and opinions will be given a ready ear, will be taken seriously, and that others may pick up the ideas so that innovation may occur. The "yes, and" principle is, therefore, one key to successful communication, teamwork and innovation.
Of paramount importance for every communication and presentation is also the personality of the speaker, which can create an atmosphere of trust and real interest. Body language plays a very important part and, very often, is used only unconsciously. Usually, "Status" is connected with a certain position or power, which someone enjoys in an organization or in society. However, in everyday life, we constantly play with our personal Status, which is somewhat independent from our professional Status. Everyone prefers a certain Status. By raising your own Status, you gain more authority and assertiveness. By lowering your own Status, thereby increasing the Status of someone else, you convey empathy and sympathy. Both raising and lowering your own Status are important and useful in different situations. Students will learn their preferred status and how to change it, when appropriate.
In this course, students will improve their communication and presentation skills, working with the methods of improvisational theater to also enhance their spontaneity, creativity and ability to deal with unknown situations.

It is closely connected to the five units of the Liechtenstein School of Architecture and is usually part of ongoing research projects. The supervision consists of directing the students towards clear results within a given field of research. The individual study is reviewed within the respective unit.

Urban Design & Spatial Development Unit:
We are happy to support your independent study projects that use our methods and approaches to pursue relevant urban and spatial development issues and to help you find your own research questions. We can offer topics for independent studies related to our research areas in the Alpine Rhine Valley and beyond.
Then get in touch with us. We look forward to working with you!

Zum erfolgreichen Bestehen des Moduls ist eine Mindestnote von 4.0 erforderlich. Zusätzlich müssen 80% der zu absolvierenden Einzelprüfungen eines Moduls mindestens mit der Note 3.5 abgeschlossen werden.

Ziel der Lehrveranstaltung ist es, die bereits im Diplom- oder Masterstudium der Rechtswissenschaften erlernte Methodenlehre im Hinblick auf die zu verfassende Dissertation zu vertiefen und auf hohem wissenschaftlichem Niveau anzuwenden. Die Lehrveranstaltung behandelt folgende Themenfelder:
• Methodenkanon
• Gesetzesauslegung
• Rechtsfortbildung
• Europäische Methodenlehre
• Richtlinienkonforme Interpretation
• Rechtsvergleichung
• Ökonomische Analyse des Rechts
Alle Themenfelder werden anhand von praxisbezogenen Fallstudien im Kontext des liechtensteinischen und des europäischen Rechts erarbeitet. Besondere Berücksichtigung finden grenzüberschreitende Sachverhalte sowie die Rezeptionsrechtsordnungen Österreich, Schweiz und Deutschland.

Im interaktiven Seminar werden die Grundkonzepte vermittelt, anhand von praktischen Fallbeispielen angewendet und vertieft. Im Rahmen der schriftlichen Prüfung werden der Lernerfolg und die vermittelten Fertigkeiten überprüft.

Die Studierenden vertiefen ihre Methodenkompetenz sowohl theoretisch als auch anhand von praktischen Fallbeispielen. Die Studierenden identifizieren methodische Fragestellungen in praxisnahen Sachverhalten und lösen diese mithilfe der anerkannten Methoden der Rechtswissenschaft. Neben dem klassischen Methodenkanon, Auslegung und Rechtsfortbildung befassen sich die Studierenden intensiv mit der europäischen Methodenlehre. Dabei werden insbesondere die Unterschiede zur Auslegung im nationalen Recht in den Blick genommen und die richtlinienkonforme Interpretation, deren Bedeutung stetig zunimmt, schwerpunktmässig behandelt. Die Studierenden können nach Besuch der Lehrveranstaltung abschätzen, inwieweit die Rechtsvergleichung eine zielführende Methode im jeweiligen Rechtsgebiet darstellen kann. Daneben erlernen die Studierenden Grundzüge der ökonomischen Analyse des Rechts und erfassen Chancen ebenso wie Gefahren interdisziplinärer Ansätze. Der vertiefte Umgang mit Auslegungs- und Methodenfragen soll dazu dienen, selbstständig eine korrekte Auslegung von Rechtsquellen vornehmen zu können, wie sie sowohl in der Theorie als auch der Praxis des liechtensteinischen und des europäischen Rechts unumgänglich ist.
