Implementation Description Methods of instruction Implementation
ARK-44006 2014-01 The Professional Course 2 in Planning and Urban Design focusses on strategic, regional and general master planning. It gives skill and knowledge both for planning and urban design practice and for research and development tasks. In 2014, the broadest context of the course project is the changing notion of work. The concrete task concerns analysing the regional pattern of work in Tampere and designing specific work environments in different municipalities of the region. The course consists of lecture series on current planning trends and theories of urban and regional change, case workshops, home exam, site and actor visits and short international excursion. The GIS module of the course is same as earlier independent course AYS 2450
