Course offer
The Spatial Modelling Lab offers a wide range of courses at all levels of study. These courses cover topics from planning, geography, spatial statistics, and computer science.
The various types of study projects are aimed at students at different levels both on our BSc and MSc degrees. It enables students to learn skills of scientific work at an early stage of their studies and in an independent manner.
This course introduces students to the fundamentals of geographical information.
These offers introduce students of Spatial Planning and related empirical disciplines to spatial-statistical principles and methods from an applied perspective.
This lecture offers an up-to-date, synoptic, and critical overview of how digital instruments, logics, methods, etc. influence and change geography as a spatial science and thus also spatial planning.
This Master's level seminar investigates the multiple factors leading to housing shortages, such as planning regulations restricting urban development, the older generations holding on to their family houses, the “not in my backyard” (NIMBY) attitudes of certain socio-economic groups, the treatment of housing stocks as speculative investments and retirement funds.
We are happy to discuss with you possible dissertation projects that fall into our research domains.
We award the annual Arthur Getis Dissertation Award for the best Bachelor’s and Master’s theses focusing on quantitative spatial research.
