Urban Planners Present their Degree Projects
On September 6-7 2013, an exhibition of research projects from 2011-2013 called ‘The City’ took place in the ‘SahArt’ gallery. The first graduates of the Graduate School of Urban Studies and Planning presented their master’s degree projects, the culmination of two years’ work.
The themes of their theses concerned a wide range of urban problems, from legal urban regulation to the characteristics of the aural environment, and from citizens’ participation in urban management to migrant issues. ‘The first graduates of the master’s programme of the Graduate School of Urban Studies and Planning presented the results of their research projects which they had been working on for two years, and shared their future plans. Each theme is essential for the debate about Russian cities, and that’s why all graduates were invited to the exhibition’, explained Yuri Milevskiy, exhibition supervisor and GSUSP Research Fellow.
