INTEGRATED
STRATEGIC DESIGN FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF
ARCHITECTURAL, URBAN ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCES
2nd
level university master course
Director :
prof. Sergio Crotti
Deputy Director: Prof. Ilaria Valente
The Master Course is conducted in scientific cooperation
of the Ecole d’Architecture de Paris Belleville (France) and
the Escola Tecnica Superior de Arquitectura de Barcelona (Spain)
and under the patronage of the Roll of Architects, Planners, Landscape
Designers and Curators of the Province of Milan, the National Architecture
Institute IN/ARCH, the Italian Environment Fund FAI, and the Civita
Association.
Goals
The
“Integrated strategic design for the development of architectural,
urban and environmental resources” 2nd level University Master
Course meets the urgent need to train, as prescribed by the EU directives,
highly qualified professionals with an excellent technical-management
expertise in the field of reclamation, revamping and innovation
of sites affected by degradation, disrepair, and dismantling, or
in the field of development, promotion and enhancement of sites
whose high qualitative potential can be revealed through innovative
strategic-design solutions integrated with simultaneous activities
on inferred conditions, sophisticated procedures and foreshadowed
results.
The need for high-level professionals with orientation, coordination
and overall project direction skills is highlighted by the inadequate
technical and professional skills presently available on the market
against the complex phenomena occurring in metropolitan areas in
Europe and worldwide, where settlement dynamics lead to the disintegration
and estrangement of large areas of high urban and environmental
value, which become unrecognizable due to the acceleration of street,
transportation, and technological infrastructures, since, despite
their sophisticated interconnection links, these infrastructures
lead to the segregation, fragmentation and homogeneity of the different
areas, and erase the denotative wealth of urban and environmental
architectural structures in the different European regions.
This originates the meaningfulness of an annual post-graduate in-depth
study program aimed at the specialization of designer architects’
professional role needed for the strategic direction of activity
programs on an international level, with respect to new highly qualified
technical performance requirements in terms of critical control,
interdisciplinary direction and operational methodology.
The “Integrated strategic design for the development of architectural,
urban and environmental resources” Master Course aims at providing
young graduates in Architecture as well as Civil and Building Engineering
with a specific critical, methodological, technical and professional
training, supplementing university education, capable of enhancing
the knowledge base for the design of architecture, the city and
the environment.
The high profile of designers with Master Course qualifications,
features a consolidated mastery of theoretical-practice, acquired
as basic concepts, methods and operating tools, thanks to the integration
of the different disciplines constituting the design with the skills
originating from other areas concurring to the decision-making process.
The curriculum provides 63 credits, and a total of 800 teacher/hours,
i.e., 1500 student/hours, distributed between teaching and training
activities.
Teaching activities include lectures, application laboratories and
specialized seminars.
