| Leerdoelen | - to distinguish the different spatial planning cultures present in the national and international contexts. - know the theoretical, methodological and ethical foundations of spatial planning and design - are aware of the relevant Dutch and international career prospects for spatial planners, both in practice and research - be able to utilise contemporary experiences from Dutch planning practice as a starting-point for applying knowledge in an international context. - be able to relate important, globally relevant research topics to the faculty research programme and the research program of the spatial planning department. - be aware of the interdisciplinary and international character of spatial research and they are able to integrate, analyse and reflect upon information from various perspectives (including social, cultural, economic, planning, demographic and physical geographic themes). - be able to give substantiated and critical feedback on analyses, designs and solutions for spatial problems. - be able to present theoretical concepts, proposals, research outcomes, designs and spatial strategies by means of visualization, written texts and verbal presentations in a convincing and informed way to a diverse audience of specialists or non-specialists. - to have developed academic skills (e.g. comprehending theories, gathering and analysing academic literature and data) and general skills (e.g. computer, reporting and presentation skills) –that are necessary to perform effectively in planning related jobs and to undertake further study - keep up-to-date of contemporary planning developments and are able to integrate this information in spatial planning processes. |

| Omschrijving | Planning practice is a dynamic situation of cultures, specialisms, and roles in action in a specific social, institutional and political context. This course begins with acknowledging the dynamics of contemporary planning practice with a focus on the Netherlands and its European neighbours. It builds on the extended general knowledge of spatial planning and geography gained in preceding study years. It examines uncertain and complex dynamics that planners face when taking roles in and for the living environment in different specialisms. Planning Dynamics prepares students to understand contemporary planning practice in its dynamic social, physical and institutional context in a way that enables them to position themselves and to develop their future roles. The course provides students with an overview about the practice of spatial planning and helps them demarcate a position (a role) for themselves as a future planning practitioner who plays a role in the field, and to understand different fields (specialisms) and their related dynamics in different cultures of planning. Therefore, it looks at social, administrative, political and spatial planning processes in a national and international context. This entails comparing the Dutch situation with planning and policy systems elsewhere in the world, studying the Dutch situation itself, especially in relation to decentralization, deregulation and subsidiarity, and deconstructing it in order to focus on reasoned interventions in planning practice, including the role of provinces and regional development, cities and neighbourhood development, and the position of several prestigious projects within the field of spatial policy and planning. |
