3. SURE project objective
AIM OF PROJECT is improving quality and increasing adequacy of educational offer of EU Higher Education Institutions to the needs of society through the development of multidisciplinary joint MSc curriculum in English - SURE: Sustainable Urban Rehabilitation.
Now, in a rapidly changing world, issue of sustainable development is one of the most important problems of modern countries and societies. Sustainable Urban Rehabilitation is the direction that embeds architecture, urbanism and cultural heritage in context of requirements and condition of doctrine of sustainable development. Spatial, demographic, ecological development requires professionals who will be able to customise architecture and urbanism to specifics of these conditions.

4. SURE project objective
Multidisciplinary joint MSc degree programme SURE: Sustainable Urban Rehabilitation combines the following areas of sustainable development: broadly understood architecture, urban planning and protection of cultural heritage. These fields are complemented by social issues, e.g. sociology of the city or architectural design attracting multicultural travellers.
Universities will obtain the tool to educate new generation of architects who understand need for and objectives of sustainable development, both in terms of architecture and urban planning and in terms of society, as well as protection of heritage.
