01.07.2015

• The postgraduate program ‘Social Urban Regeneration’, will begin next October 8th, and includes Richard Rogers and Jean Nouvel as guest lecturers.
• The postgraduate program is accredited by the Polytechnic University (UPC). Students will develop a real case study project on a social urban scale and specific context.

How should the new cities be? The global economic crisis has awarded an unusual prominence to some emerging countries that now need to change the appearance of their cities, if not directly to create it. On the other hand, cities like Paris, Barcelona and ​​Naples constantly renew their great historical centers, or redefine their boundaries. How should these new cities be? Does it make sense to build a new New York in China? What new necessities reveal the renovation of historic cities?

This postgraduate program will provide students the tools to create a social urban project from beginning to end in 10 weeks. Based on Enric Miralles’ architectural way of thinking through his methods and practice at EMBT, students will specialize in an integrated, contemporary and sustainable urban planning. They will create proposals to develop a project in "2017 Grand Paris Clichy-Montferneil Suburbs of Paris" integrating theory and practice of planning and creative design aspects.

Main Postgraduate professors leaders are Benedetta Tagliabue, EMBT (Enric Miralles Benedetta Tagliabue) study director, and Josep Maria Rovira, professor of the School of Architecture of Barcelona (ETSAB) and will assist as visiting professors, among others, Richard Rogers and Jean Nouvel.
