Urban Design and Architecture Education

The necessity and importance of urban planning and city design education: Do our cities meet the minimum standards of the world? What people can be effective in improving the condition of cities? To organize a city, the cooperation of a large group of people is needed. In this regard, urban planning specialists play a very important role. Given this issue, professional discussions for this group will be very necessary and decisive. City network analysis techniques are one of the most important issues in shaping the texture of cities and solving city problems. Urban design is concerned with the layout, appearance and function of our suburbs, towns and cities. It is both the process and the outcome of creating places where people live, interact with each other and engage visually and practically with the physical space around them. Urban design is an interdisciplinary science, encompassing many different disciplines including planning, development, architecture, landscape architecture, engineering, economics, law and finance, and lessons from sociology, anthropology, cultural landscape studies, environmental psychology, human geography and health studies.
