KurzbeschreibungThe course deals with theoretical, methodological and practical foundations around the understanding and production of urban space. It discusses theoretical planning frameworks, and tasks of spatial planning at various scales, addresses current and future challenges of spatial development and reviews approaches for a sustainable development in Switzerland and beyond.
LernzielThe overall aim of the course is to raise students’ awareness and curiosity about the aspects that guide and shape our environment. Through lectures, readings, discussions, and exercises, the course seeks to achieve this goal by accumulating crucial notions from both theoretical and practice-based examples, and applying such knowledge into tasks of spatial planning.
At the end of this course, students should feel empowered to critically engage with the teaching topic from a variety of approaches. By taking up the lecture, the students should be able to to analyse, interpret and reflect complex cross-scale tasks of spatial development and transformation, and to use their theoretical, methodical and professional knowledge to tackle them.

You as students will...
... assess present and future core challenges of spatial planning and development.
... discuss the role of spatial planning and development in shaping our living environment.
... differentiate the levels, scales and tasks of spatial planning instruments and processes.
… reflect on theoretical concepts and pratical examples of decision-making of spatial tasks.
... identify and apply spatially relevant principles and systems for action-oriented planning and decision-making.
... acquire theoretical, methodological, practical know-how to examine, clarify, and solve tasks on spatial development
InhaltSpatial development as a discipline deals with the development, (trans)formation, and arrangement of our urban environment. We simultaneously perceive and contribute to its transformation, making space the result of manifold intended and unintended changes. To mediate between different demands, interests and interventions of multiple actors, a forward-looking, evidence-based, and action-oriented planning is necessary. As guidance for future action, (spatial) planning has to be committed to the sustainable handling as well as just allocation of resources, in particular of the non-replicable resource land.

The course focuses on both theoretical concepts and practice-oriented approaches to gain knowledge and be equipped to address current issues in spatial planning and development. This is mirrored in the course’s structure made of both of lectures and exercises.

The lecture series introduces necessary key concepts and covers the following main topics:
- Drivers of spatial development, inward development, core tasks and current challenges for (spatial) planners.
- Interplay of formal and informal planning instruments across scales and actors.
- Differentiation urban typologies, their characteristics and challenges
- Types of spatial analysis and key figures
- Planning approaches and the (political) steering of spatial development.
- Types of processes and participation in spatial development.
- Approaches for planning complex urban situations
- Concepts for sustainable development

The exercises provide a framework for practical application of the learned theoretical concepts of spatial planning to real-life situations.
SkriptA course will be set up on Moodle for the provision of lectures and documents, to upload group deliverables and to ask questions in a discussion Forum. All documents provided are exclusively available for use within this course.

103-0377-10LBasics of RE&IS Belegung eingeschränkt - Details anzeigen 3 KP2GC. Sailer, F. Corman, D. Kaufmann
KurzbeschreibungThe course Basics of RE&IS provides essential skills and knowledge for the Master's degree program in Spatial Development & Infrastructure Systems. Students will know the basics of scientific writing with complementary use of human and artificial intelligence. Students will learn how to search for scientific literature, create graphs, and give a presentation while writing a literature review.
LernzielThe overall objective is to equip students with the necessary skills and knowledge to effectively conduct academic writing, specifically focused on writing a review article, and to introduce them to the use of Generative AI in enhancing their research and writing process.
By the end of the course, students should be able to independently;
- search for and evaluate high-quality sources on their chosen topic and use citation management software.
- organize their writing and construct a scientific text, paragraph, and sentence structure using coherent and complete arguments and clear, concise, and specific language.
- understand citation styles and subject conventions, apply references to the chosen reference system, and properly cite all types of sources.
- determine appropriate types of graphs to represent data and create and evaluate effective graphical representations of data.
- present results systematically and persuasively using a consistent, informative slide deck with engaging and accurate visualizations; speak clearly and confidently using effective words, voice, and body language; know how to practice and deliver the presentation.
- review and provide appropriate feedback on peer work, use AI tools to assist in various stages of the writing process, and critically reflect on originality declarations, plagiarism, etc.
InhaltInvolved chairs are:
Infrastructure Management (IM), Transportation Systems (TS), Traffic Engineering (SVT), Transport Planning (VPL), Spatial Development and Urban Policy (SPUR), Planning of Landscape and Urban Systems (PLUS) and Spatial Transformation Laboratories (STL).

Christian Sailer, education developer at the D-BAUG, has a special focus on interdisciplinary competencies in teaching at the D-BAUG. He therefore takes the lead of this course in collaboration with RE&IS chairs, who periodically alternate among themselves.
