Layered City: Toward a Sustainable City<br />
The module provides students a basic understanding of Urban Design<br />
including some of the key debates, terms, writings, ideas and spatial and<br />
social qualities about urban formation. We address some theories and<br />
practical examples of city development - including global case studies -<br />
to indicate how urban planning and architectural decisions can be better<br />
informed. The module should help students understand the city as a<br />
dynamic, social system.<br />
It is a module that intends to stimulate students' creative engagement<br />
with their surroundings as well their ability to assess, appraise and<br />
critique various urban and cultural phenomena. Students will be<br />
encouraged to read a variety of journals, books and academic papers.<br />
They must be ready to think, formulate their opinions, and argue for<br />
their ideas.<br />
