degree programmes

The HafenCity University currently offers six bachelor's and master's degree programmes

With the bachelor’s degree, you acquire a first academic degree with professional qualifications. In addition, the bachelor’s degree also qualifies you for a subsequent master's degree.

By selecting a master's degree, the field of study can be continued and consolidated as well as expanded interdisciplinarily in a subject-specific context. However, a specialist reorientation can also take place by changing to a master programme which is not based on your first academic degree.

 

Bachelor degree programmes

The bachelor programmes of HCU Hamburg correspond, in particular, to the current demands for a professional education and provide the relevant foundation in the respective field of study. At the same time, the growing specialisation of careers dealing with the designed environment and its economic, social and ecological constraints requires graduates to be able to understand and work with a wider range of topics, problems and protagonists. It is thus important that students have a firm foundation in their specific disciplines; at the same time, they must, however, be able to deal with the different ways in which other branches of study view, understand and interact with the world. Due to the wide range of its specific disciplines, HCU Hamburg opens up this special understanding of the neighbouring disciplines involved in the planning, design and construction within building and urban development processes. Innovation in the special range of disciplines results in innovation in each of our bachelor programmes.

Master degree programmes

The master programmes offer students, ideally after they have gained their first professional experience, the opportunity to acquire more in-depth knowledge of their chosen field of study, which enables them to work independently in their discipline. The master's degree at the HCU Hamburg can also, however, serve as preparation for a scientific career, as the students participate in research processes in their specialist disciplines as well as in integrated research fields of the overall university. Our aim is to offer a variety of master programmes, which exceeds the limits of the previously existing disciplines, and to thus enable students to open up new professional fields in an individual and targeted manner in the area of built urban and regional environments.
