Today, more than half of all people live in metropolitan areas – with a rising tendency. Cities are the engine of economic and social development and thus the scene of technological innovations and new mobility trends. At the same time, growing traffic volumes in cities lead to congestion, noise and air pollution and thus reduce the quality of life. Planning and regulation both of transport and land use have an important task in dealing with these challenges.

The seminar analyzes trends and interrelationships of urbanization, spatial use patterns and mobility in cities worldwide. It provides basic knowledge on the interactions between the built environment and mobility. It shows the importance of different means of transport and their use in the urban context, and classifies the significance of current technological developments and mobility concepts. Finally, approaches and possibilities for planning and controlling integrated urban and mobility planning are analyzed. The aim of the seminar is to enable the participants to understand urban mobility and its connection to spatial structures, to develop suitable planning instruments or to analyze them with regard to their chances of success.

The seminar is internationally comparative. The contents will be dealt with both theoretically and by means of concrete practical examples. The forms of teaching and learning include structured input by the lecturer, discussion and specific contributions or presentations by the course participants on selected thematic case studies. In addition, each course participant prepares a written planning case on the topic.
