MAUD - SSoA

The programme builds on the our ethos around the relationship between architecture and society. As such, the MA in Urban Design is grounded in an integrated approach that links spatial design and urban processes as a means to understand the spatial morphology of contemporary urbanisation, and the social forces underpinning urban form. Our interest lies in the processes of uneven urban development and in the many agents and actors who, in their capacity of engaged citizens, are transforming the meaning and forms of the places they inhabit. With this in mind, the course seeks to establish innovative modes of practice involving agency and community participation, and to investigate which approaches and methodologies might allow for rethinking the role of both designers and citizens in the processes of city-making.
