After successful completion of the course, students are able to ...
- to carry out planning in urban core areas outside the EU
- to use the content of the basic courses ("VO Grundlagen der Transportplanung und Mobilität" and "VU Verkehrsplanung") in depth
- to record the situation on the ground according to traffic planning and urban development criteria
- to obtain information under difficult conditions
- to work with an international team and with local authorities
Further results / experiences are:
- Application of Austrian planning know-how and getting to know the Egyptian planning culture and the existing expertise at Cairo University.
- Exchange and cooperation between students, experts and teachers from both countries.
In cooperation with students of the Cairo University (Faculty of Urban Planning) and the administration, an integral planning and urban development plan for the area of the citadel is to be created. The citadel and its surroundings are among the few large open spaces in Cairo, which is one of the densest cities in the world. This place is considered a potential gateway for visiting many other heritage sites and the historic core of Cairo in the Cairo metropolitan area.
In doing so, local needs have to be considered. In particular, the requirements for non-motorized, public and motorized traffic in urban core areas and their interaction with urban planning diverse situations and user groups (trade, market operation, tourism to heritage sites but also housing).
The process is structured as follows:
- Problem analysis, on-site research and goal definition
- Preparation of rough draft
- Preparation of detailed plans Further information can be found shortly under "Documents" in TISS.

Permanent (examination-immanent) participation in all phases and thematic sections of this course mainly in group work with individual responsibility of each individual person.
Every participant must contribute structurally and creatively and organizationally to this course.
Focus of work can be chosen according to interest, but each one always has the overall view of the project. A mere auxiliary activity under the guidance of other colleagues is not enough.
The student must have at least all of the course(s) completed listed below:
280,089 VO Rudiments of Traffic Engineering and Mobility
280,094 VU Traffic engineering
280,090 PR Spatial Design and Urban Development (Project 1)
280.457 PR Spatial Development Planning (Project 2)
