Urban Design (extracurricular)

Urban Design (extracurricular)

Study Programmes
Master's degree programme in Architecture
Project Description
In the face of increasing global challenges, it is incumbent upon academics and practitioners to confront climate change, uneven development, migration, economic crises, and social conflicts. Cities and regions are key sites in which these challenges are staked, resulting in an uneven landscape of resources and opportunities. In order to create the kind of architecture that positively transforms the status quo, we require a deeper understanding of the processes that underlie the production of the built environment, from transdisciplinary engagement with the wide range of stakeholders in both local and global case studies to concrete applications for translating scientific knowledge into urban and architectural design.
This course presents cutting-edge discussions in urban theory that shed light into globally and locally connected processes of urbanization, in order to approach these topics.
Teaching Method
exercises, research, writing, case study
Learning Objectives
Students will learn to engage with the subject matter, primarily through the analysis of advanced academic texts.
