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 />
