Architecture and Urban Design Summer School

July 7 – July 27, 2019

The Hochschule für Gestaltung Offenbach, University of Art and Design, and Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences are offering a joint summer school in 2019. Using the city centers of Frankfurt and Offenbach as examples, summer school students will examine and compare the usability of urban spaces by different groups. Students will study the historical origins of these spaces in both cities and explore the needs that public spaces should satisfy. During the summer school, students will analyze spatial definitions, structures, design and usability in comparison with corresponding situations from their home countries.

The summer school is taught entirely in English and designed for international students.

What’s included?

Three weeks of academic courses, workshops and site visits, and an exciting cultural program including an excursion to Germany’s capital, Berlin. Accommodation, insurance, and transportation around Frankfurt and Offenbach are also included in the program fee.
