Save the – CAMPUS DESIGN 2025

This year, Campus Design Open will be twice as much: two exciting events invite you to Campus Design & the Schlachthof grounds.

INSIDE CAMPUS DESIGN
29. & May 30, 2025
An interdisciplinary event for all members of the Faculty of Design + Building. The focus is on exchange, networking and insights into current research, transfer and teaching projects. Together we create a diverse program – with space for inspiring conversations and social interaction.

WORK SHOW CAMPUS DESIGN
25. & July 26, 2025
At the end of the summer semester, students present their final theses and semester projects. The exhibition opens its doors to prospective students, alumni, friends and the general public – with exciting insights into the faculty's ideas, concepts and design processes.

The design event, which is well-known and highly regarded throughout Germany, offers students and
students, their parents and professionals from the design business an insight into the work and development of creative ideas at the Design + Bauen campus. The students are delighted to finally be able to show their work again in May and to invite you to lectures, workshops and live music in the evening.

The Architecture, Integrated Product Design, Civil Engineering and Interior Design courses are united on the Design + Building campus. It offers teaching staff and students a wide range of opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration and interdisciplinary project work. The shared home serves as a source of inspiration for new approaches.
