Why this master's degree?

Urban planning cannot be indifferent to the fast transformations of our society in the new information era. The increasing complexity of the urban phenomena and their interactions, the impact of the new communication technologies in relationship between the city and the territory, the role of the big metropolises, which is getting more and more relevant to an international scale, make the urban planner develop suitable methods and instruments of intervention in this context.

This new common program faces up to the challenges of contemporary urban planning, attending to the development of new instruments for a critical intervention in different contexts. The workshops constitute the core of each semester.

The UPC's Masters in Urban Planning Project Design has been designed to train highly qualified architects in the development of urban projects that have to adapt to a dynamic and very complex urban environment. The Master's program emphasizes the physical form of the interventions, in relation to which the rest of aspects in urban planning are considered (economic, social, management, etc.). This is the reason why the workshops based on real urban planning projects in different towns, carried out in close collaboration with the corresponding administrations, are the focal points of the Masters. The rest of subjects, which bring extensive theoretical and methodological knowledge about the processes of urban and territorial transformations, are articulated around the workshops. Some of these workshops have been published, for example:

Aims

The aim of the Master's is that students is to capacitate students to do the following:

Address urban projects in a dynamic and highly complex urban environment.
Analyse the urban problems of urban and territorial spaces.
Design proposals for planning, remodelling and urbanization of these spaces.
Integrate in the reflection on the forms of physical intervention, the sociological, economic, technical and management dimensions of urban planning.
Incorporate in the projects the different urban scales.
Prepare a personal and informed reflection on the main problems of the different fields of action of urban planning.
Critically reflect and incorporate the dynamics of urban complexity within a clear conceptual scheme.
Carry out research through design, which enhances the capacity of this approach, as well as offering an innovative technique, through the project as a producer of knowledge.

Who is it for?

Architects with advanced or associates degrees
Urban Developers
Landscapers
Managers working for public administrations
Geographers
Economists
Civil Engineers
Exceptionally, other professionals linked to urban planning will be admitted.

Territorial and City Workshop

This workshop focuses on formulating a real, current and representative intervention proposal for one of the issues that territorial organization is currently dealing with. The effect of massive infrastructures, the geography of activities, recognition of the shape of territories as an intervention criteria, among other things, will be some issues that will be articulated in the focus of the project. This project will be initiated using information that has already been generated allowing students to use the materials and create adequately detailed proposals.

3 ECTS 18h

Online

Planner Organisation Theory

This section seeks to offer key urban development and design studies into the origin and evolution of territorial organisation and an evaluation of the current situation of our context and other nearby urban development cultures through the selection and detailed discussion of a meaningful group of plans and studies. This includes definition of objectives, technical development of the main proposals and application instruments.

3 ECTS 18h

Online

Cultural Landscapes

This course aims to provide an overview of developments in the treatment of heritage from the protection of cultural landscapes:

Learn the concepts of 'cultural landscape' and 'heritage park'.

Specific assessment of the situation in our immediate context and the challenges posed by this new conception of the landscape.
Evaluate criteria and instruments in the successive stages in the development of a project in an area full of heritage resources and develop through analysis of representative examples, methodological guidelines for intervention.

Online

Cities-Networks: Eco-Systemic Urbanism

The aim of the first part of the course is to offer a focused view of the relationship between two concepts (infrastructure and planning) on an urban scale. This course proposes systematising characteristic problems from each type of infrastructure according to remodelled planning where issues and flows (communication, energy, mobility), logistics, environmental infrastructures, public transportation, together with other relatively traditional layouts of streets and urban services constitute fundamental themes.
Responsible: Profs. Joan Miró and Francesc Magrinyà (Department of Infrastructures, Transport and Regional Planning).

The second part of this course introduces environmental principles on an urban scale, integrating them into the urban landscape. New concepts, parameters and techniques following the environmental paradigm are incorporated into this course with the aim of improving the integration of natural and urban environments.

3 ECTS 18h

Online

Urban Structure and Systems

This course includes discussion about the material, functional and formal characteristics of the contemporary city when it experiences a transition from an industrial economy to a service based economy and from a compact urban configuration towards a more diffuse configuration. Analysis of processes and different forms of traditional growth, new means of locating activities and constructing new residential and commercial zones. Collective space versus public and private space in the contemporary city.

3 ECTS 18h

Online

GIS, Data Base and Territorial Project

This course aims to show, with practical cases, the potential of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) as a tool in the process of projecting the territory and the city. For this, the management of Big Data is investigated through the use of GIS.

The objective is to learn to work with data from multiple sources and start processing them to obtain knowledge that is useful to us in our project. The information available may be excessive, and our objective is to give it added value, using it as the basis for a positive analysis.

12 ECTS 96h

Face-to-face

Urban and Place Workshop

The workshop raises as a central theme the relationships between the new pieces of the contemporary city, which are frequently distinguished by their isolation, mutual indifference and insensitivity to the urban context, events that have generated periurban territories, where disintegration is dominant. The proposed projects focus on the exploration of possible functional and formal links between these units to configure new urban structures, a condition of their complexity, vitality and beauty.

3 ECTS 18h

Online

Theory of Urban Planning

This course is a review of intervention theory in the urban planning field, dealing with things from the contributions of primary plans to urban documentation within the discipline. Reflection on the evolution of theory and planning methods, as well as reflection on the representative elements of recent process stages.

4.5 ECTS 27h

Online

Urban Project Theory and Urban Economy

Based on the contents and techniques of action of recent proposals, selected for their paradigmatic value, this subject analyses different aspects of urban intervention on an intermediate scale, of the urban project.
In the second part it is taught to read the processes of growth and transformation of cities from their economic and social keys. Issues such as local labour markets, industrial districts, incidence of new modes of transport and exchange, information flows and information dissemination ... are some changes to which physical planning has to respond.

4.5 ECTS 27h

Online

Urban Composition and Residential Urban Project

In the first part of this subject, reference is made to the compositional aspects of the urban project, based on the recognition of a double ambiguity: the lack of definition of the distinctive open spaces of the current city and that of the computing instruments, once we renounced the Simple geometry and symmetry that have characterized the historic city. The mechanisms capable of constructing these formal structures are debated, among which the new geometries of nature and the new natural referents stand out.
Next, the discussion of the recent evolution of the urban regulation instruments of architecture, especially those more specific in the field of planning and urban design, will be considered.
Finally, residential management models of recent years are analysed, which affect aspects such as centrality, accessibility, endowments, community spaces, leisure and nature.

3 ECTS 18h

Online

Design of Public Space

This course aims to introduce the role of public space and its characteristics as a fundamental element in the urban structure of the city. Review the different elements and techniques used in the construction of the public space. Special attention is paid to the recent conceptual revision in its design and the gradual enrichment of techniques and materials. It is also proposed to define the fundamental elements on which the urban public space project is based, as well as to publicize the public spaces carried out in Barcelona since 1981, which have been the cause of international recognition.
