We will be showcasing the diversity and interdisciplinarity of cutting-edge research projects produced by the Interdisciplinary Urban Design MRes over the past 10 years, and bringing together our alumni as speakers in conversation with our academic staff and current students, as well as industry professionals. This first Opening Research Seminar will be the first event of six Public Research Seminars. For prospective students wishing to learn more about and/or study on the Interdisciplinary Urban Design MRes, you will have the opportunity to ask your questions about applying for the course to Programme Director Dr Filipa Wunderlich and alumni of the course.
The Interdisciplinary Urban Design MRes Book/Research Catalogue, Exhibition and Research Seminars Series are part of a wider UCL ChangeMakers funded project, entitled: MRes InterConnect: Bridging Interdisciplinary Communities and Frontline Research. In addition to showcasing the cutting-edge research produced by the Interdisciplinary Urban Design MRes, the aim of the project is to enhance connections within our community of alumni and academic staff from The Bartlett, UCL's Faculty of the Built Environment.
The project is led by Dr Filipa Wunderlich and current students Adonai Boamah-Nyamekye, Zhejun Wang, and supported by alumni Mariam Alzaabi and Shani Pearlman
