In times of immense challenges, successful social development depends more than ever on our ability to perceive and shape complexity with sensitivity and in appropriate measure.

Teaching and research at the Faculty of Education, Arts and Architecture therefore focuses on extrapolating education-relevant, technology-supported design scenarios, unfolding artistic quality caught between aesthetic aspiration and the free market, securing sustainability in the real spaces of buildings, residential estates and infrastructure as well as interpreting and participating in our culture’s transformation processes by means of new media.

Through interdisciplinary work, artistic approaches and scientific research complement each other as forms of knowledge enhancement and as the basis for teaching.
