Master of Urban Development & Design Program Outline The intensive one calendar year program involves two acedemic semesters plus a summer term, which includes a compulsory field project and design studio in a major international city. The program seeks the synthesis of three bodies of knowledge about the city - spatial political economy, theories of good city form and urban design as public policy. Coursework is progressive, stressing theoretical knowledge of economic, social, environment and physical design determinants in the first semester, moving to applied skills and implementation techniques toward the end of the year. The program comprises eight core course and one elective course. The compulsory core includes five lecture/seminar courses, three project based studios, and a case study course. Students are encouraged to select an elective from a list of recommended course offered by the Faculty of Built Enviroment. Students may be permitted, with the approval of the Program Director, to select electives from course offered by other faculties of the University. The summer term is devoted to the international urban design studio, case study investigations of major urban projects, and critical reflection on the year’s work through preparation of the annual exhibition and publication of the MUDD Folio.
