Integrated Urban Development and Design (IUDD) at Bauhaus-Universität Weimar

Overview

The Integrated Urban Development and Design (IUDD) program at Bauhaus-Universität Weimar is a Master's Degree pathway in Arts, Design & Architecture, taught primarily in English.

To be considered, applicants typically need a competitive German GPA (around 2.5 or better) and English at B2 level. Admission to this program is restricted (numerus clausus). Applications are submitted via via uni-assist.

The program spans 4 semesters and charges no tuition fees (only a semester contribution may apply). Key application deadlines are May 15 for the winter intake.

With our international Master's programmes, going back to 1999, we attract an international league of dedicated students with different cultural backgrounds and multiple perspectives on the "urban". We expect our applicants to be committed to further develop and exchange their knowledge while bringing a strong personal and professional interest in the field of urban design in practice, applied research and parametric urban design. With the special notion on system approaches students are trained in using and applying computational urban design tools in support of analysing and simulating urban design scenarios in an interdisciplinary way. The Master's programme in " Integrated Urban Development and Design (IUDD) " enables students to learn corresponding solution-oriented strategies and digital instruments to apply those in practice. The studies are project-related, application-oriented and research-based. Aiming to integrate a multitude of key factors in urban development students are trained to become skilled in applying innovative, data-based approaches through digital planning methods (algorithmic design and analysis models as well as artificial intelligence methods). The degree programme places particular emphasis on learning and applying computer-aided, system-based planning techniques.
