Geometry

Head: Univ.-Prof. Mag.rer.nat. Dr.techn. Boris Odehnal
Office: Irene Karrer, BSc
Courses in the Department of Geometry are anchored in the different curricula of the artistic subjects. The study spectrum is thus accordingly broad. Our main priority is to transport “classical knowledge”, which can subsequently be put into application in professional artistic activities, with the computer as the medium of representation. Geometry at the Angewandte enjoys national and international scientific distinction.

The department conducts and supports intensive research – especially in doctoral studies – in the realm of classical geometry as well as computational geometry and computer graphics. Building upon research results in the development of innovative geometry software, the department has also realised practice-oriented projects – for example, architectural software with novel functions.
