Môn học

The MSc SUD is structured into basic courses, main courses, specialisation courses, multidisciplinary courses, elective courses and the master thesis.

Basic modules

To guarantee a consistent knowledge-level and reduce efforts in the special studies the students are offered three basic-modules (Basics). Corresponding to their own aptitude and the contents of their previous BSc. study programme, students could choose maximal two of these three modules (12 CP). The basic knowledge will be expanded during the further studies. Alternatively, the students are enabled to choose one or two elective modules from the specialisation studies (specialisation-modules, freely chosen option). These 12 CP of the basic- or elective-modules have to be acquired as part of the curriculum by all students. The choice of a student has to be approved by the study programme manager.

Main courses

The special studies start with the main courses covering 46 CP. The main modules impart specific knowledge in selected specific topics of the sustainable urban development. The main courses are obligatory for each student.

Specialisation

The two specialisation courses as specific problems of the sustainable urban development give the students the chance to select a special topic which he/she is interested in. The specialisation “development” is focused on the developing as well as the redeveloping of residential sub-districts and complex of buildings. The specialisation “traffic” is focused on the coordination of developing public and private traffic infrastructure according to spatial planning instruments.

One of two specialisations has to be chosen by each student. The specialisation contains 18 CP.

Elective Modules

In regard to his/her chosen basic and specification modules the student has to choose one or both elective modules. Therefore the student is offered the two special elective modules or the modules of the specification he/she did not choose. The choice of a student has to be approved by the study programme manager.
