Starting in September 2017, the University of Luxembourg launches a two-year, English-taught Master program on Architecture, European Urbanization, and Globalization. The program is situated within an interdisciplinary environment, where the design studio as the core of the study program will be constantly fed by surrounding fields, such as geography and geospatial analysis, regional and urban development, circular economy, sustainable transport systems, energy performance of built environments, and other themes. The new master program aims to train professional architects equipped with disciplinary tools as well as with interdisciplinary knowledge. Within this context, design is interwoven with research, and the principle of the master program highlights the dialectical relationship between “design by research” and “research by design.”
