The
The HafenCity Universität Hamburg (HCU) is an innovative institution specializing in the design and development of urban environments. With a focus on inter- and transdisciplinary approaches, the HCU offers a wide range of degree programs that focus in particular on architecture, civil engineering, geomatics, urban planning and Metropolitan Culture[1][2].
The HCU aims to explore the challenges and opportunities of urban development and to develop sustainable solutions. This requires close cooperation between various disciplines and actors from science, business, administration and civil society.
The HCU is strongly committed to sustainable urban development. One example of this is the SURE project, which aims to bundle and communicate research results in the field of sustainable urban development. A highlight is the SURE Atlas, a digital set of tools that helps researchers set and monitor sustainability goals[3].
The HCU is involved in numerous international projects and networks, including the World Urban Forum, where innovative approaches to sustainable urban development are presented[3]. This demonstrates the importance of the university as a platform for the exchange of knowledge and ideas on a global level.
The HCU is therefore a central player in shaping sustainable cities and offers a unique environment for interdisciplinary research and teaching.
