| Description | Develop your skills in designing public, shared and private spaces in urban and rural settings, and explore the transformation of districts and neighbourhoods. The programme aims to explore how urban design can be used as a tool for sustainable transition, combining architecture, planning, landscape design and societal perspectives to reimagine and visualise how urban environments can respond to environmental, political, economic and cultural challenges. The programme is built around the integration of theory and practice. With a focus on urban design theory, spatial analysis, sustainability, and the sociopolitical dimensions of transformation processes, you will learn how different perspectives can be applied to real scenarios. | | |
