Who We Are
At the Chair of Urban Structure and Transport Planning at the Technical University for Munich (TUM), we unravel the tapestry of urban dynamics, transportation, and accessibility.
Our mission is to create cities that are not only visually striking and efficient but also accessible to all. With a multidisciplinary approach, we delve into the intricate connections between people, spaces, and mobility, uncovering innovative solutions that enhance inclusivity and improve quality of life.
Through groundbreaking research, transformative design, and collaborative partnerships, we shape urban environments that empower everyone, regardless of their abilities, to fully participate in and enjoy the urban experience. Join us as we redefine urban accessibility and pave the way for more equitable and thriving communities.
