Mission and Goals

In the urban planning spectrum, on the one hand, consolidation of a series of urban management activities that require advanced interpretation and application can be identified:

  • the development of general urban planning tools;
  • infrastructural, housing, transport, services, and environmental policies;
  • management of complex programs and projects.

On the other hand, the demand for new urban and territorial policies that require specific professional competence is increasing.
