The Department was born with the objective to work on the whole universe of urban experience. In this perspective, the department has created a training project of excellence able to reflect on the changes and transformations of the built space, promoting a permanent research activity for design models and solutions that are appropriate and innovative.
The Course
The growth of new urban landscapes has determined a remarkable change in the organisation of the space: it is no longer the concentrated city, but it is the territory, the landscape, the container of everything. This new model of contemporary city can be assimilated to an archipelago where each unit has its own connotation, but where the social values as well as the activity are strictly connected with the relations existing with the other units.
The Master specifically deals with:
- Design quality, in terms of town planning and building trade;
- Coordination strategies for the interventions of the decisional actors, with the creation of operative and management structures based on innovative organisational models;
-The social quality of the planning proposals, based on planning procedures and on innovative techniques regarding the activation, guidance and listening of the participation;
- Optimisation of the financial resources, both public and private, to obtain the operators’ interest;
- The use of the right tools to create and communicate projects.
The course is based on learning through experience. Therefore, the students will be guided in each phase to encourage a “learning by doing” approach.
