Learning Outcome:The module clarifies key terms and contents as urban politics, government, governance, planning strategies, and buzz words like sustainability, sufficiency and resilience in the context of urban development. It contributes to the analysis and estimation of the framework conditions to plan and implement projects in
the field of Urban Design and Sustainable Revitalisation. It explores governance structures which determine the space to manoeuvre for professionals in this field. It touches on legal planning methods and procedures, participation of the public and decision making of legal bodies, land and construction economics and optional funding schemes which determine planning and building. These themes are put in context of sustainable and integrated urban development. The module enables students to understand and explain processes and actors
involved in urban development. They are familiar with central definitions, concepts and institutional interrelations which determine planning policy, development and building processes. They have knowledge of the role of public and private finances and funding instruments. The students are able to contextualize and describe these topics in the context of urban design and sustainable revitalisation projects.
