This degree programme aims to train junior urban planners and designers that are able to contribute — through adequate knowledge and skills — to processes of analysis, assessment, design,
planning, and management of the city, territory, and environment. The educational activities
are characterised by highly
innovative methodologic and technical
approaches to social demands
and emerging issues: climate change, energy, place identity,
city and territory resilience,
social equality and inclusion,
participation. In addition
to specific contents developed within the relevant courses, the teaching process encourages a number of forms of interaction between students, professors, and external experts: labs and studios become the breeding ground for integration of theoretical and methodological knowledge, applied knowledge, and technical-practical
skills. Internships
introduce students to external
work environments (professional
studios, technical offices of local or central government, companies, associations, and organisations) where they learn
to manage the operating conditions of their profession.
Professional profile
The
junior planner and urban
designer may correspond to
multiple professional profiles.
Thanks to the knowledge and
skills gained during their education,
the graduates can take the professional
licensing examination and enrol in the professional register of Architects, Planners, Landscape Designers,
and Curators/Section B, in order to work as self-employed junior planners or to earn important career positions within the local or central government.
Other emerging and not necessarily regulated professional profiles allow graduates to work: for
companies, associations, and organisations;
with other professional figures on plans, programmes, projects, and consultancy for urban planning
and regional and environmental
analysis; in the assessment,
participatory processes,
and development of geographic
information systems; on the management of specific applications for
planning and urban design in information and communication technology applications; on thematic
processing of geographic information even within the field of geomarketing for the regionalisation of business strategies.
