Global Urban Studies - elective studies and summerschools

Through research-based teaching and innovative learning processes, the student of Global Urban Studies focus on the study of urban societies throughout the world from a comparative and cross-cultural perspective, acquiring knowledge of how cities shape and are shaped by people, and how cities and urban spaces are negotiated, organized, used, and ascribed cultural meaning.

The subject elements are presented either as regular courses or as summer schools. Learn more about the summershools in Global Urban Studies.
