| Abstract | The main focus of the lecture is on site and project development questions in relation to recycling of industrial wasteland. A semester exercise covers a specific major project and serves as the semester grade (project report and presentation). | |||||
| Learning objective | Objectives of the lecture are: 1) Get knowledge of comprehensive and multifunctional large-scale projects and their problem areas 2) Get deepened knowledge in selected fields (site analysis, market analysis, project development, cooperative planning, participation processes) 3) Practical orientation, insight into occupational fields 4) Independent acquirement and acquisition of theoretical knowledge | |||||
| Content | The lecture consists of several modules. The main focus is on site and project development questions in relation to recycling of industrial wasteland. Technical presentations, lectured by scientific staff of the division of Planning of Landscape and Urban Systems PLUS as well as well guest referees treat different subjects. The subjects are: -Site and market analysis -Real estate development -Project development from the perspective of project developers and investors -Parking and transportation models -Cooperative planning, participation processes, mediation The theory is discussed and illustrated at case studies and exercises. Specific large-scale projects that are currently in the development phase will be discussed, for example the area Sihl- Manegg in Zurich (GreenCity) or the area Alter Pilatusmarkt (Niedfeld) Luzern. For one specific industrial wasteland area the students will develop a vision for a possible redevelopment and a new land-use concept, which will be discussed with experts. | |||||

| 103-0417-02L | Theory and Methodology of Spatial Planning Only for master students, otherwise a special permisson by the lecturer is required. | W | 3 credits | 2G | M. Nollert | |
| Abstract | In order to solve problems in spatial planning it is necessary to explore actions and to judge them; finally, one has to argue why a certain option should be preferred to others. Assessments of the situation are the basis for the problems to treat. Specific knowledge, represented in an adequate manner, is required. | |||||
| Learning objective | The participants know the interdependencies between the assessment of a situation, decision making, knowlegde and language. They know the nature of a decision dilemma und maximes, how to deal with it. Especially they learn that the requirement of information for a decision depends upon the preferences of the deciding acteur. They are also familiar with difficulties and pitfalls within these contexts and know what can be done against it. | |||||
| Content | Assessment of the situation, deciding, language and knowledge are the main parts. | |||||
| 051-0363-00L | History of Urban Design I | W | 2 credits | 2G | V. Magnago Lampugnani | |
| Abstract | The lecture covers the time from the beginning of urban culture until the mid 19th century. With selected examples it emphasizes on the historical plannings and methods of European cities. Each specific urban development will be presented within a broader context. | |||||
| Learning objective | This course analyzes the history of urban architecture primarily in its existing three dimensional form as a complex human artefact. It also explores the inspirations that prompted the creation of this artefact: philosophical and religious concepts, social conditions, property relationships and the mechanisms that exploit the economics of real estate and the influence of building technology. Intellectual, literary or artistic modes of thought will also be assessed with regard to their impact on urban development. Urbanism has its own distinctive approach as a discipline, but it is also clearly responsive to the influence of related disciplines. Study is made of actual cities and urban expansion plans which are in the process of implementation, as well as unrealized projects and visions of the future. These projects sometimes illustrate ways of thinking that are equal to, or clearer than, actual urban situations. | |||||
