How can architectural design respond to urban ecology? MADE explores that question through digital techniques, critical thinking and physical experimentation, with teaching in English.
Studio and research
Two studios sit alongside architectural design techniques, ecology and design-based research. Digital and physical prototypes connect project work with the city. The programme finishes with a 10-credit thesis.
Who it may suit
The course is directed towards architects and architectural thinkers. B2 English certification is required; review the university’s academic entry requirements for your qualification.
Possible directions
UPC lists public-space and building design, research, digital communication and curatorial work among relevant directions. Consider the kind of portfolio you want to develop when comparing studios.
