Entry requirements |
The Curricular Unit has no entry requirements, however it assumes that students successfully attended the Architectural Design Curricular Units of the previous years.

Learning outcomes |
The exercises are intended to be a sequence of a graded learning process that is both creative and operative, with the core object being the development of project practice as a means of instrumental, scientific and cultural evolution. The processes of the project exercises presuppose the adjustment and perfecting of a methodology of reasoning and work, the evolution of which will correspond to the growth of the students' autonomy and maturity and, consequently, to the progress of the density and consistency of the project itself, on a scale that begins with urban analysis and culminates with public space and architectural objects.
Progressive scales, design models, representation and debate will be used to develop a project for a small public facility that transforms the territory, requalifying its environment and reorganising its urban functionality.

Syllabus |
The central theme that structures this CU's programme is urban design, taken as the conformation of the significant void, in order to juxtapose a vast or just programme in a weave of the Useful, of multiple uses aggregated by the qualified and protagonist presence of Public Space.
Thus, the central theme is the Urban Project, understood as a relationship between the scale of the territory and the scale of architecture, between the Plan and the Project. The realisation of the proposal must presuppose a set of parameters that are based on ecological, landscape and environmental systems at the collective level and on the issues of alternative energies and sustainability at the individual level.
Theoretical and practical concepts on the various phases and stages of urban design. Methodology and the creation of a valid design process to meet the demands of the proposed programmes.
Means and methods for analysing, reading and representing spaces, whether urban or architectural.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The assessment of the curricular units is continuous and face-to-face and, as such, includes compulsory attendance, participation, regularity and continuity of discussion, minimum quality of work and fulfilment of the objectives. Attendance at all classes and the completion of all work does not guarantee automatic approval for the curricular unit. Students will be accompanied on an ongoing basis in Theoretical-Practical (TP) and Tutorial-Orientation (OT) and will work in a face-to-face system, by teachers Andreia Garcia, Fernando Diniz and Miriam Ruiz Inigo.
