The foundation of the CCSA roots in the aim to connect graduates of architecture, urban design and planning, art history, curatorial studies, and social, cultural and media sciences in joint events, and thus to reflect the many layers of architecture. Goal of the CCSA is, to serve as a platform for emerging researchers and scientists within the field of architecture, to present their research, and to open it to discussion with an interdisciplinary expert audience. Therefore, seminars, workshops and conferences are planned at the DAM, through which graduates can connect architectural research with curatorial-medial competencies.
