In March 2026, the department will be represented by doctoral student Jonas Betz at the Blended Intensive Programme (BIP) ‘Discovering Research in a European Context’ in France.

The article by Lukas Fitz introduces the ‘sandboxing canvas’ as a methodological tool for systematically integrating value-sensitive design into the market launch phase of digital platforms.

The publication examines the requirements for augmented reality (AR) solutions in the context of human-building interactions (HBI). Based on an applied research project aimed at developing and evaluating an AR-based campus app, the authors derive practical recommendations for action.

The chair cordially invites all doctoral students to participate in the upcoming doctoral colloquium. The event offers a forum for scientific exchange, discussion of methodological approaches and reflection on the current state of research of ongoing dissertations.

The ABWL-OU chair will not be available from 22 December 2025 to 4 January 2026. We wish you a happy new year and happy holidays!
