The Model Project
The model project consists of an internship and the model project forum. In the internship the students work at innovative and ambitious businesses to gain experience and work on projects, that will help society move forward in a significant manner. The model project forum happens after the internships and all the partners of the participating businesses will attend and listen to the student-presentations as well as discuss current topics and give lectures.

We would like to invite your company, your institution, your agency to join an extraordinary initiative: The Model Projects of the Master's Course »Integrated Urban Development and Design«. 1
Our Vision
As we strive to initiate the transfer of knowledge between theory and practice by way of a mutually profitable exchange, we are looking for partners in the profession as well as in research institutions. We ask you to incorporate our early professionals into an advanced project which allows them to collaborate in all relevant phases. The model projects take place each year between the months of September and March for a duration of three to six months. All Model Projects are presented each year in the spring during the International Model Project Forum to an audience of students and professionals. The public forums at the Bauhaus-Universität are accompanied by the release of a publication documenting all Model Projects from to time.
A monthly remuneration of approximately 750.00 Euro per month is considered appropriate to the level of qualification the postgraduate students provide. A comparable compensation, i.e. providing accomodation, may account towards the remuneration deemed adequate.
What We Offer
The Model Projects of the Masters programme »Integrated Urban Development and Design« transcend a conventional internship by far to successful matches between master students and praxis partners. Aside from the qualification which our postgraduate students already possess and contribute to your institution, the following features may proof interesting to your organisation:
- Your organisation will become an official Project Partner of the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar with our master study programme and as such part of a growing network of experts in practice-oriented research and the professional field.
- You will be invited to participate in the Model Project Forum, during which the Model Projects are publicly presented in a joint format of students and expert partners. (Travel costs can mostly be covered, we kindly ask to choose the most cost efficient means of transportation)
- The conference lasts for two days and offers you to enter an interdisciplinary dialogue with internationally reknwon experts, participating in the forum as moderators or as speaker.
- A portrait of your organisation is presented at the Model Project Forum.
- Past Model Project Forums were unanimously considered a great experience and success by guests and participants likewise and are a valuable contribution to bring together praxis and academia.
1) the Model Projects previously were part of the former Master programme 'European Urban Studies' from 10/1999-9/2018 and since its reaccreditation as master programme IUSS is continued from 10/2018 on is part of the bauhaus.ifex.
We would be happy to welcome you as a Model Project Partner and supporter of our master programme and the Bauhaus-University Weimar!

telefon: + 49 (0) 3643/58 27 72
e-mail: philippe.schmidt[at]uni-weimar.de
1. Content of the IUDD Model Project
The agreements with Model Project Partners are in regard to particular projects. Their extensive integration within the project of the Project Partner which has been agreed upon is binding for both parties. Integration within other projects may only occur if these are relevant within the thematic context of Integrated Urban Development and Design.
The internship agreement includes a specific assignment, ideally research-based design. Its integration into the particular work process needs to guarantee the ability to extensively acquire knowledge of the structure of the project and the Project Partner. Expressedly intended is the ability to contact relevant personnel, transfer between departments and intensive integration into meetings and exterior contacts of the Project Partner. Possibilities of intensive inquiry and research work should be made available.
2. Financing
Usually, a working contract is signed with the Project Partner, guaranteeing a limited special status within the Model Project. The payment needs to be considered for each particular case. We consider a monthly payment of 750.00 Euro per month as an appropriate compensation for our postgraduate students, or a comparable compensation, also in regard of the local rental market for housing, i.e. like providing accommodation or other compensation. The compensation surely also depends from the different professional experience and academic degrees of our postgraduate students.
3. Project Report and Evaluation
Parallel to project oriented tasks, the presentation of an extensive project report is a central objective of the working contract. The project report consists of at least 25 pages (choose landscape or portrait format according to what is more useful for the project you relate to) and is the basis for the intended publication on the Model Projects "Reflective Urban Practice". We are Europe-based but not Europe-centered and our vision of urban studies lays beyond borders - knowing that the influences among different cultural spheres today is a part of how cities are developed. Knowledge exchange that nevertheless identifies how different approaches to solve urban problems and to identify solutions and strategies have a special value.
Part of the work on the report will be introduced within the Model Project Forum "Reflective Urban Practice" in a lecture of 15 minutes + a debate. The report is reflecting practice (in design or research or strategic development etc.) but should use the proper way of scientife writing by using adquate sources (original sources like plans etc, texts, images) and quoting properly.
It is reommended to include the following aspects:
a) Description of the project structure of the Project Partner
- legal construct
- history and context related to the current urban discourse
- tasks / projects of the student
- clients and partners
- working structure, management concept and hierarchic patterns
- leadership and communication structures
Model Projects to which you have collaborated
- project description
- legal construct, financing
- client and partners
- team profile and disciplinary structure/tasks of disciplines involved
- project history
- classification and context of the project related to a broader urban discourse
Your tasks within the Model Project
- range and field of activity
- competence and tasks within the project
- team work
- acceptancy and experience
b) Evaluation
Beyond this, we expect a critical analysis and reflection of the Model Project within the field of topics of the Integrated Urban Development and Design (IUDD) study course.
- Classification of the project within the contemporary discourse of urbanism
- evaluation of the innovative character of the Model Project
- evaluation of the success of the Model Project
During your Model Project time we recommend to write a "Project-Diary". Also, from the beginning on, material should be collected and a well executed documentation of the Model Project (photos etc.) should be conducted.
A successful Model Project internship, the preparatory seminar as well as the Forum seminar and finally the Model Project Forum and is of importance for the success of the study programme "Reflective Urban Practice" in the master study course "Integrated Urban Development and Design". Only by intensive collaboration with interesting Model Project Partners from the various disciplines participating in the field of urban design/urban research/administration/project development may fulfill the expectancy of contributing to the development of a new planning culture.
The team of the study programme "Integrated Urban Development and Design" wish you a successful Model Project experience!
