Learning outcomes

After successful completion of the course, students are able to...

• To elaborate the challenges and potential of actual planning situations

• To derive trend-setting planning questions and to answer them with the means of modern urban planning

• To develop dedicated site-specific development strategies by discursively exploring different urban development guidelines (Asia-Europe) and to derive urban planning drafts from them

• Solve interdisciplinary planning and design tasks in international teams

• To adequately visualize and convey the results of the analysis and planning as well as creative implementation

Subject of course

The main teaching content is the confrontation with specific situations in urban conurbations as well as in urban peripheries or in rural areas. The drafting includes the critical analysis of the existing building, the discussion of general urban planning guidelines, the conception of site-specific development strategies, the development of urban planning drafts, as well as their visualization and presentation. The planning discussion ranges from the scale levels of regional and urban planning to questions from building typologies to urban design details.

The actual work will be done by the students in a 2-week intensive workshop in September (probably 13.9.2020 - 25.9.2020). 

The LVA is offered in cooperation with spatial planning.

Both teaching staff and students are internationally staffed by partner universities:

  • Tongji University, Shanghai,
  • South East University Nanjing,
  • University of Shenzhen and
  • UNSW University Sydney.

Important: This course in English is only reserved for students who participate in the workshop in Vienna

Application only with portfolio.

Further details and technical documents follow over the course of the summer term.

Urban Analects - Essays about Chinese Urban Transition

Urban Analects

(The Analects (Lun-y) is a collection of moral and ethical principles enunciated by the Chinese thinker Confucius in conversations with his disciples. These principles set standards for individual conduct and the administration of government and community. After Confucius died in 479 BC, his followers compiled his teachings in the form of dialogues between him and his students. The resulting collection highly influenced educational, social, and cultural thought in China and elsewhere.) 

Wikipedia, The Analects, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analects (25.09.12)

Urban Analects is a book of essays published to honor the 10th anniversary our Austrian-Chinese university cooperation. During these 10 years we have experienced an extremely eventful period of history, and have witnessed some developments that irreversibly changed the image of our contemporary world. We all may consider ourselves fortunate enough to have had the opportunity to witness the rise of China into an economic and cultural world power, as well as Europe‘s transformation into a unified economic and cultural space. Working with our students on various urban and architectural projects, we have contributed to these processes at least to some degree. 

Looking back at these past years, we can say without false modesty that we have left our mark on a great number of young people, particularly students, enabling them to understand and learn from our respective cultures much more than this had been the case before. Also, this cooperation has only strengthened us in our belief that education is the cornerstone of any modern society. We hope that at the end of the book the reader will share our view. In the words of great teacher and philosopher Confucius: If your plan is for one year plant rice. If your plan is for ten years plant trees. If your plan is for one hundred years educate children.
