About Design for Urban Environment, Master Degree - at IED – Istituto Europeo di Design

Learn how to play an active role in the transformation of cities in a course where design thinking represents the backbone of a global, interdisciplinary and integrative vision of the citizen's experience.

Today we face major challenges in urban environments, and we need professionals who can learn from the past, understand the present and anticipate the future to design solutions for these environments, in collaboration with the decision-makers and the people living there.

This master's degree gives you the resources you need as a specialist to play a leading role in the process of urban transformation, a process of change that's essential for living in the modern age. Be part of the solution with your work, with urban designs that improve the social, cultural and economic fabric, and change the way we live in the 21st century.

The English-taught course focuses on the following areas: design for sustainable development, social inclusion empowering citizens to face social challenges, governance, cooperation, e-democracy, open data and transparency, design to solve urban mobility challenges and improve safety for people in the urban environment.
