what is taught?
The
undergraduate degree programme in Urban and Regional Planning aims at producing
junior urban designers and planners capable of
assessing the transformations of today cities, regions and the environment and
of working on planning, design and management tools.
The primary and “frontier” issues on which the undergraduate
degree programme is focused concern: the processes of territorialisation, sustainability and human settlements, energy,
climate change and the territory, the role of scenarios in building vision, new
forms of plans and urban planning and design projects, strategic environmental
assessment, the landscape, information technology and remote sensing in
regional governance, participatory processes, planning policy and European
Union programming.
how is it taught and what is achieved?
The
curriculum is organised in seminar and lectures courses dealing with one or
more subjects and studio courses on spatial analysis, urban design and regional
planning.
The studios
insist on “learning by doing”, on connecting theory, methodology,
research and technical-practical skills as well as identifying and resolving
problems through different types of plans, programmes and projects. The studio
courses, and the pre- and/or postgraduate internship, are an important step
toward the world of work or the pursuit of further study.
after the undergraduate degree
Graduates
may choose to continue their studies:
- in
postgraduate specialisation courses or in the Faculty of Regional
Planning’s graduate degree programmes in Urban, Regional and
Environmental Planning and Policy (PCTA, which has two tracks, one of which is
offered in collaboration with other universities)
or
Geographic Information Systems and Remote Sensing (GIS);
- in degree
programmes in Italy and abroad, especially in the European countries that are
part of the Bologna Process on higher education.
Graduates
also have the knowledge, abilities and skills to enter the job market, taking
on roles of responsibility in the field of urban and regional planning and
design and urban and regional policy making, in the public sector or as
independent professionals. They are prepared to undertake tasks involving
analysis, interpretation and assessment, to manage territorial information and
to collaborate on defining plans, programmes and projects. Graduates are
qualified to take the Italian licensing exam to enrol in Section B-Planners of
the Register of Architects, Planners, Conservationists and Landscape Architects
and to practice as a junior planner on
their own, in public administrations or private companies.
Other fields of interest, for which professional licensing is not
necessarily required, include consulting on local participatory processes and
sustainable urban development as well as programming, planning and design and
fieldwork for supranational institutions and organisations and non-governmental
organisations.
