MAS/CAS Spatial Planning
Ongoing urban sprawl, overflowing traffic in agglomerations and transit areas or increasing natural hazards are central issues for the development of our living space.
The research group SPUR dedicates itself to the analysis of policy problems and spatial development questions that emerge in urban and metropolitan regions. We work at the intersection of public policy, urban politics, and spatial planning.
ETH RAUM - The platform for sustainable spatial development
ETH RAUM is the new ETH platform offering a broad range of courses in spatial development. The MAS in Spatial Planning will be replaced by the MAS in Spatial Development. The new MAS and the three CAS programmes focus on spatial development, planning practice, process design and the city as a laboratory for the future.
