Abstract

This article is a reflection on the urban planning teaching and its integration with the design activity in Architecture and Urbanism schools by the development and implementation of an innovative degree programme for a course of Architecture and Urban Planning in the Brazilian Northeast area. As experience report, initially the article will address the conceptual and empirical grounds that gave rise to the construction of a critical view of the Architecture and Urbanism courses in this region. Then, we will discuss the criteria that were the basis of this new programme and some strategies adopted for urban planning teaching, especially the inclusion of a discipline that deals with urban planning in the first semester of the course. Since it is a still recent experience, the first evaluations made by teachers and students on the practical application of the above criteria will be reported.
