222-0504 – Creation of Seats Enviroment (TPS)

Learning outcomes of the course unit The aim of the subject is to acquaint students with the principles of urban studies and then to submit semestral work, in which students propose a new development in a specific locality. Students learn how to process acquired theoretical knowledge in practice and also improve presentation skills and teamwork.

After the initial theoretical training, students are assigned a location for the creation of an urban study. Emphasis is placed on finding all the available information about the territory, using the elements of the urban composition and transferring the theoretical knowledge to the practical level. Part of the lesson is a presentation of the results of the work, including a general discussion among the students about the work.
