About

Cross-Disciplinary Strategies (CDS) provides the opportunity to work on current societal challenges in a multidisciplinary degree programme at the University of Applied Arts Vienna, linking the approaches and methodologies of art, the humanities and social and natural sciences.

Overview

The introductory year of this Cross-Disciplinary Strategies programme at the University of Applied Arts Vienna covers principles of programming, statistics, academic work in the form of research and text production, as well as the principles of human rights, the structure of international organisations, artistic practices and current discourses in social sciences and humanities.

In subsequent years of the programme, the curriculum is structured into the study areas science and technology, economics and politics, and artistic strategies and approaches to art with annual topics that deal with global challenges such as migration, medialisation, work, growth, environment, and nutrition.

In this phase, students apply knowledge from their content lectures in cross-disciplinary projects in team work. The programme aims to enable students to identify and uncover complex correlations, and to integrate them into cooperative processes of action.

Learning outcomes

Graduates employ artistic skills, strategies and principles of artistic praxis and experience, plus broad knowledge regarding the basic principles of research from the areas of natural sciences, humanities and social sciences to identify, develop and bring about systematic and innovative approaches for the achievement of sustainable transformation and design processes.

Graduates gain an understanding for the complex coherences of our globalized and tightly interwoven societies and are able to take a critical stance towards the multiple challenges of our time.
