Integrated Master in Architecture
Profile of the concentration in Architecture, Urbanism, City and Territory
The profile of the concentration in Architecture, Urbanism, City and Territory enriches the Integrated Master in Architecture (MIARQ) with a reinforced approach to issues related to the city and the territory, thus contributing to the formation of a professional capable of thinking about the urban object as a living organism and in constant transformation.
This specialization profile seeks to start from the thought and design of buildings to build the city and thus play an active role not only in space conceptualization and territorial/urban/architectural design but also in life, culture and challenges of the contemporary city.
This profile thus provides a more comprehensive training, becoming a factor of differentiation and competitiveness in the national and international labour market.
Cities are in constant evolution, shaped by both small and large actions from all of us. They are physical constructions, but also expressions of culture, coexistence, and the ways a society inhabits space. In this sense, it is the role of architects to acquire an education that enables them to face the challenge of urban design, by imagining and planning the places where we live, work, learn, and interact.
Key topics for reflection and learning include current issues such as urban rehabilitation, public space requalification, and the regeneration of declining areas, as well as the impact of new technologies on the design and organization of urban life. This concentration in Architecture, Urbanism, City, and Territory, of the Integrated Master in Architecture, at the Lisbon School of Architecture has been awarded the Quality Label by AESOP – the Association of European Schools of Planning – in recognition of meeting European quality standards in its program, further enhanced by the effective internationalization of its teaching and learning processes.
Furthermore, the faculty conducts various research lines on urban topics, involving students and fostering an advanced and internationally recognized education.
