This action-oriented educational program aims to learn how to design regions and cities based on the concept of environmental studies. Regions or cities, where people are living, can be interpreted as an integrated environment of nature, buildings and social spaces. Professors of various genres -- ranging from architecture to landscape design, to urban or rural planning to structural engineering -- run their own design studios. In addition, this program incorporates common lecture series. This program is an attempt to build a sustainable regional society by re-integrating segregated specific design fields.
