Studierende beider Universitäten werden darin 20 Räume sowie das Tempelherrenhaus und den Verbindungsweg durch den Park multimedial bespielen. Das Fest verbindet Architektur mit Kunst und Musik, Bühne, Performance und Fest - wie es programmatisch für das Bauhaus war und damals von Meistern und Schüler gelebt wurde.

      Staatliche Bauhochschule Weimar
      Staatliche Bauhochschule Weimar

      The Staatliche Bauhochschule Weimar was founded following the closure of Bauhaus Weimar. Otto Bartning developed the concept for a "Bauakademie" in Weimar and became its director on March 22, 1926. In principle, the concept was similar to that of Bauhaus, but its aim was to unite all the different trades under the umbrella of construction. The center of training was therefore the architecture department, which did not exist at Bauhaus Weimar. Ernst Neufert was in charge of the department. The construction department was responsible for the workshops, which functioned not only as teaching facilities but also as production facilities, where unique pieces and industrial models as well as the equipment for buildings were realized. In comparison with Bauhaus, the training was more practice-oriented: the aim was to train apprentices on concrete construction projects. Many former Bauhaus students who were not in favor of the move to Dessau joined the Staatliche Bauhochschule Weimar in 1926. The first employees included Otto Lindig, Erich Dieckmann, Wilhelm Wagenfeld and Richard Winkelmayer, as well as Ewald Dülberg and weaver Hedwig Heckemann. Stylistically, the direct comparison with the works created at Bauhaus reveals a less experimental orientation. In 1930 the Staatliche Bauhochschule Weimar was replaced by the Staatliche Hochschule für Baukunst, bildende Künste und Handwerk, and Paul Schultze-Naumburg replaced Otto Bartning as director

      Bauhaus-Spaziergang

      Hervorgegangen aus einer studentischen Initiative, ist der Bauhaus-Spaziergang heute zu einem äußerst erfolgreichen Projekt und festem Bestandteil des Weimarer Kulturkalenders avanciert. Die Guides, angehende Architekten, Bauingenieure, Kulturwissenschaftler oder Künstler vermitteln den Besuchern aus ihrer Perspektive die Historie ihrer Universität und was es heißt, an dieser besonderen Hochschule mit ihrer wechselhaften Geschichte zu studieren und zu lernen, aber auch zu leben und zu feiern.

      Bauhaus Walk

      Originally created by students, the Bauhaus Walking Tour project is an extremely successful and integral part of Weimar’s cultural landscape. The tour guides, all of whom are prospective architects, civil engineers, cultural scholars or artists, show visitors what it means to them to study, learn, live and have fun at this unique university with its eventful history. The visitors are taken to the historic Bauhaus sites where they can relive the past and present of the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar. Indeed studying at such an institution is like joining the ranks of the renowned Bauhaus masters whose aura is still palpable today. For this is where Walter Gropius, Wassily Kandinsky, Paul Klee, Lyonel Feininger and many others taught and practiced their ideas every day.

    internationale Studierende

    Als Ausdruck der internationalen Ausrichtung der Universität empfehlen das Dezernat Internationale Beziehungen, das Sprachenzentrum und die Universitätskommunikation, den Ausdruck »internationale Studierende« zu verwenden. So wird stärker der Kontext fokussiert als die nationale Zugehörigkeit. Die bisherige Formulierungen »ausländische Studierende«, »foreign students«, bzw. »Ausländer« sollte aufgrund der eher ausgrenzenden Konnotation vermieden werden.

    international students

    Due to the negative association the word ‘Ausländer’ possesses, ‘internationale Studierende’ is the preferred German term.

  • Leitbild

    »DE.ENG«, das

     

    Das »DE.ENG« soll allen Angehörigen der Bauhaus-Universität dabei helfen, eine einheitliche Sprache für alle Korrespondenzen und Unterlagen im internationalen Umfeld zu definieren.

    Es ist eine Sammlung von Begriffen, die für offizielle Übersetzungen vom Deutschen ins Englische in den Print- und Online-Angeboten der Universität genutzt wird. Alle Studierenden, Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter sind dazu eingeladen, das Glossar als Nachschlagewerk und Ratgeber zu nutzen sowie bei der Erweiterung und Verbesserung mitzuwirken.

    Die im Glossar verwendeten und gewählten Begriffe sollen der Bauhaus-Universität Weimar ein eigenes Gesicht geben und dürfen nicht als Anpassung an Institute und Organisationen ähnlicher oder gleicher Struktur verstanden werden. Nichtsdestotrotz haben wir uns bemüht, eine Auswahl von einfach verständlichen Begriffen zu treffen, die auch von anderen europäischen Bildungseinrichtungen genutzt werden und somit internationalen Standard entsprechen. Natürlich kann es durch die Vielfalt der akademischen Systeme zu Varianten und Variationen von Begriffen kommen.

    Sie können Kommentare, Rückmeldung und Ergänzungen in Bezug auf Übersetzungen durch Klicken auf das Symbol »Have Your Say« einbringen. Vorschläge für aufzunehmende Begriffe sind ebenfalls willkommen. Begriffe, deren Übersetzung noch zu spezifizieren sind, befinden sich im Diskussionsforum.

    Die Universitätsleitung hat schon vor längerem festgelegt, dass der Name Bauhaus-Universität Weimar ein Eigenname und deshalb nicht zu übersetzen ist. Wir bitten um Einhaltung dieser Regelung.

    Hauptquelle für Begriffsdefinitionen ist das Oxford English Dictionary. Aber auch andere Quellen wurden für Begriffsbildungen und Übersetzungen herangezogen.

    Die Weiterbildung des Glossar wurde im Rahmen des BMBF-Projektes »Studium.Bauhaus« durch die Finanzierung einer temporären Übersetzerstelle gefördert.

    Für Rückfragen, Anregungen und Vorschläge wenden Sie sich bitte per Mail an:

    »DE.ENG«

    »DE.ENG« is a tool that is offered to all members of the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar. This tool is designed to support a consistent translation of university-related terms and the standardisation of spelling (British English) and capitalisation of those terms. The content found in »DE.ENG« is designed to be used for all text which provides either an internal or external representation of the university, i.e. website text entries, university print and online publications.

     The fine print:

     

    »DE.ENG« was produced using funding from the BMBF project »Studium.Bauhaus«.

    »DE.ENG« should not be regarded as a teaching device nor is it meant to define how personal correspondence or lecture material should be written. There are of course many possible (equally correct) translations for many terms. The goal of »DE.ENG« is simply to offer a central data bank that users can refer to so that university-related terms are consistently translated in order to increase clarity and avoid any confusion or ambiguity.

    Users are encouraged to offer their feedback and suggest new terms – especially in the case of any new degree programmes, courses, professorships, projects, associations, etc. or any name changes to currently existing degree programmes, courses, professorships, projects, associations, etc. Please send all questions, comments or suggestions to:
