The core of the Urban Design curriculum is the three-semester
sequence of related studios and seminars. In summary, the material of
the first semester studio represents an introduction to the
morphology of New York, from center to inner periphery to edge city.
The first semester seminar provides an overview of the contemporary
literature on the question of urbanism. The second semester studio is
focused in detail on the singular issue of rebuilding the inner
periphery in New York. Its seminar investigates the question of
anonymous urban fabric with comparative study of New York and other
world cities. The topic of the third semester studio moves to another
city for comparative purposes and is primarily engaged with the issue
of restructuring and rebuilding the nineteenth and early twentieth
century fabric. The seminar continues to explore recent theoretical
debate, focused on the problematic of public space.
