In the intensive working atmosphere of a 7-10 day workshop (charrette), students work together with other students from international partner universities. The intensive design process is combined with excursions to masterpieces of landscape architecture, urban planning or art. The course includes the organization of the program, the preparation of the workshop, and the reflection and documentation of the workshop. The workshop is usually held at the project site. The workshop can be held in Osnabrück or at a national or international location. Additional costs for travel, organization and catering will be charged. Some workshops are offered in cooperation with partner universities. Participation is possible at any time during the Master's program.

Individual participation in other international student workshops is possible. Individual arrangements must be made in advance with the module coordinator.

It can be helpful to refresh the capability to communicate in english with students and colleagues. We recommend to take part in the course program "English for Landscape Professionals" of the bachelor progam in landscape architecture.

Students who have successfully completed this module will be able to analyze a complex planning task in a short period of time in cooperation with international students of architecture, urban planning and landscape architecture and to develop and present possible solutions in context.

Participants in the international workshop will be able to describe and characterize design problems in English. They will be able to develop and visualize proposed solutions in an interdisciplinary discourse.

An important learning objective is the intercultural exchange with international students and faculty on a professional level. This provides a universal understanding of contemporary challenges in landscape architecture, architecture and urban planning.

Students will have specialized knowledge and skills in graphical presentation methods. They will be able to use a wide range of advanced and specialized professional methods to work on projects and present them in a well-structured way to develop and present solutions.

Students demonstrate originality and creativity in the application of knowledge, understanding and practice. They work in diverse professional contexts that are highly unpredictable and specialized.

Students communicate with each other and with more experienced colleagues and specialists at a professional level in English. They reflect, integrate and extend knowledge, methods, skills and abilities in a professional context in order to present solution-oriented results as part of a team.

Students justify their own professional actions with theoretical and methodological knowledge and reflect on alternative approaches through international exchange with other students.
