Master Open Design

The master’s degree program Open Design/Diseño Abierto para la Innovación is jointly organized by the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (HU) and the Universidad de Buenos Aires (UBA) since 2015. It is an international and interdisciplinary double-degree program that focuses on the »design turn« in interdisciplinary research. Design as an integrating process becomes a novel mode of interdisciplinary cooperation between the natural sciences and the humanities, engineering and design disciplines as a basis for innovative processes. The course focuses on theoretical perspectives and practical dimensions in the sense of a unity of theory and practice, research perspectives and their application.

The bi-national nature of the program and its key collaborative teaching format not only open up new opportunities for interdisciplinary exchange and academic mobility for students and lecturers, but also promote and intensify the cooperation between the two partner universities in teaching and research as well as a knowledge transfer in both directions.

»Open Design«/»Diseño Abierto para la Innovación« teaches students a wide range of scientific methodologies and competencies that integrate scientific and engineering experimentation, analysis and historization of cultural studies and the humanities, and design strategies. Interdisciplinary research, intercultural communication, the acquisition of language skills, the ability to self-reflect in cooperation with people from different academic, work and corporate cultures, and the acquisition of media and technology skills are key qualifications that are becoming increasingly important in view of today's profound social change and the associated global challenges. The double degree program »Open Design«/»Diseño Abierto para la Innovación« addresses all these qualifications, promoting early career support of young academic and practice-oriented researchers.
