Urban design views architecture and cities as a shared body of knowledge. It unites diverse professionals who are all dedicated to enhancing our urban landscapes.
No matter if your background is in urban design, architecture, interdisciplinary studies, or planning, this program connects you with practitioners, planners, architects, and landscape architects to examine urban design's role in shaping cities.
Through a research-by-design methodology, this course investigates both national and global cities. You'll examine governance through a spatial design lens while gaining insight into how cities evolve under various political, economic, social, and cultural influences. By bridging theory and practice, you'll understand the intricate process of designing spaces across multiple structural levels.
You'll explore cutting-edge methods and theories in urban design, focusing on project development and solutions that prioritize environmental sustainability. Collaborating with landscape architecture and town planning students on real-world briefs, you'll hone teamwork skills while contributing meaningfully to groundbreaking design solutions.
