Annotation
• Architecture Study Focus Inclusive Architecture
• Computer science and engineering sciences Study focus Intelligent Systems
• Social Work and Health specialisation "Inclusive Concepts in the Social Space"
In the specialisation Inclusive Concepts in the Social Space, you will acquire the ability to take on a qualified position in the social and healthcare sector after graduation, in which you will be responsible for managing and coordinating complex support and participation processes.
With the specialisation Inclusive Concepts in the Social Space (MSc) in Faculty 4, you will qualify for managerial and conceptual roles for the development of interdisciplinary and participatory solutions as well as for socio-spatial inclusion at the individual, organisational and societal level. The Master’s degree course is particularly suitable for graduates of Social Work as well as Nursing and Health Sciences. You will acquire crucial skills for analysing barriers and developing user-oriented solutions. At the same time, you will learn how to shape social transformation processes in the area of inclusion in a scientifically sound manner. Against the background of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, the focus area also prepares you for a wide range of inclusion tasks in the social space, such as those that will arise in the future with the restructuring of the Social Code (SGB VIII) for inclusive child and youth welfare.
The interdisciplinary degree course focuses on the relationship between people, surrounding (social) spaces and technical systems, with the aim of creating liveable environments that enable self-determined participation for all. At the same time, you will work directly with the Master’s students in the field of Architecture and Computer Science in interdisciplinary projects. The academic degree qualifies you for positions of responsibility in research, development and management – and also provides a pathway to a doctorate.
