Mit einer Open-Air-Ausstellung und begleitenden Gastvorträgen rückt die Bauhaus-Universität Weimar im Sommersemester 2024 die Leistungen weiblicher Führungskräfte im Ingenieurwesen in den Fokus. Gezeigt werden 18 Portraits von erfolgreichen Bauingenieurinnen, die vor allem Frauen ermutigen sollen, eine Ingenieurslaufbahn einzuschlagen. Zur Vernissage am 25. April ist die Ingenieurin Agnes Weilandt zu Gast und referiert über die spannende Frage: Wie wollen wir zukünftig planen und bauen?
At nearly 30 percent, the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar has a higher than average proportion of international students. Some of these students stay in Thuringia and join the workforce, but this is by no mean the majority. Just one third are successful in starting a career in Germany, specifically in Thuringia. In order to increase these numbers and integrate more international graduates into the local and national job market, the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar will be receiving over one million euros in funding from the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) »FIT - Promoting Academic Success and Labour Market Integration of International Talents« programme.
From 24 April to 11 June 2024, students and external artists are exhibiting works that explore the possibilities of a new beginning under the title »zero is the moon«. Interested parties are cordially invited to the opening on Tuesday, 23 April 2024, 6 pm, in the temporary venue of the »nova space« – the University Gallery of the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar – at Berkaer Straße 11!
The Faculty of Civil Engineering was established 70 years ago at the University of Architecture and Civil Engineering (HAB), which is now known as the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar. Since then, the requirements of the construction industry have changed considerably. To address challenges such as the energy and climate crisis, the digital revolution, and the shortage of skilled labour in the engineering sector, the faculty will undergo a strategic realignment under a new name starting in April 2024. In the future, there will be a growing emphasis on sustainable and resource-efficient construction in research and education.
The upcoming summer semester at the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar marks a first at the university: On Monday 8 April, 2024, the first podcast of its kind in Germany on the topic of university teaching and learning will be launched under the title »Zwischen Magie und Handwerk« (Between Magic and Craft). The podcast features instructors at the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar speaking candidly with Dr. Simon Frisch, Vice President of Student and Academic Affairs and host of the podcast, about their teaching experiences, didactic methods and their passion for teaching.
Bauhaus students Esther Betz, Elisa Bessega and Sylvia Chen have been honoured for their »Mantis« cargo scooter in the »one&twenty« design competition. With this international competition, the German Design Council annually honours outstanding design students and graduates in the fields of product design and lifestyle.
A joint project between the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar’s Faculty of Media and the Klassik Stiftung Weimar allows scientists to digitalise historical garments. This involves using the so-called »3D-RealityCapture-ScanLab«. With the help of digital cameras, the ScanLab can produce realistic images of Goethe’s clothing. 3D models are generated in a complex process that helps us better understand Goethe’s life and personality through his clothing and makes it accessible to a wider audience.
