La Universidad Internacional de Catalunya vuelve a lanzar su
Máster en 'Regenerating Intermediate Landscapes'. El curso 2013-2014 se centrará en la temática: 'BARCELONA, RETHINKING SUBURBIA'.
Aquí os dejamos el póster y la carta de presentación que nos han enviado para su difusión. Os invitamos a entrar en su blog para descubrir su programa y objetivos.
Hello,
I am contacting you on behalf of a new official
master’s program in urbanism at the Esarq School of Architecture at the
International University of Catalonia (UIC) in
Barcelona, Spain, which may be of particular interest to your community. The
program, which focuses on the regeneration
of urban sprawl and informal settlements, and the preservation of cultural landscapes, embraces a unique approach
that encompasses practices from urban design to landscape architecture, working
at a scale between neighborhood and region.
The Master in Regenerating Intermediate
Landscapes is a studio
based program which offers a regenerating methodology for complex contemporary
landscapes. The program encompasses the regional
scale to the community scale of intervention. It offers the uniqueness of
the Architecture practice in Barcelona, in which Architects are responsible for
the design and planning of neighborhoods, cities and regions. This singularity
generates a design based methodology
applied to the built and natural
environment. It has also developed a project
based planning practice which has led to Barcelona’s well known urban
transformations.
Our teaching and research interests have enriched this
project-led community-regional
perspective with a necessary interdisciplinary approach to create a
holistic regeneration methodology for complex contemporary landscapes. Ecological processes, social-cultural
enhancement, preservation, economics and public health are incorporated as
inputs in order to create regenerating proposals.
If you think our program may be of interest to your students,
we would be happy for you to pass on information about the course, which you
can find at the master's blog,, the university website,, or by following us on Facebook and on Twitter .
Many thanks,
