Poster Contest and Elevator Pitch

What projects are the early stage researchers, artists and designers of the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar currently researching? How comprehensibly and stirringly can they present their work?

In 2018, the poster contest for research projects from doctoral candidates and all young researchers, designers and artists of the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar has taken place under the slogan »AufTakt« of the Bauhaus anniversary at the Wissenschaftstag on 28th of November. Follow this link to the review and the photo gallery in the  Bauhaus.Journal Online.
