After successful completion of the course, students are able to use and apply basic knowledge of social sciences within interdisciplinary projects, based on the direct cooperation with social scientists.
The psychological competence of modern spatial planners is one of the indispensable social skills. The elective course does not see itself as a psychology crash course, but rather prepares essential chapters and application knowledge of spatially related applied psychology (environmental psychology) in a suitable form for planning purposes and guides its use in the form of an accompanied project study (preferably with a current task).
The course starts with a lecture part in which phenomena and methods of environmental psychology relevant to spatial planning practice (such as personal space, territory, privacy, crowding, environmental aesthetics and user evaluation by reference, P.O.E.) are briefly presented, the participants also receive information on the different perceptions of experts/laymen and on how to convey projects to planning laymen. This knowledge will then be operationalised as an exercise in a practical project, e.g. a psychological inhabitant evaluation or a user needs analysis, based on a division of labour with the participation of external interested parties.
