Close links between architecture and urban planning are typical for Central and Southern Europe.

This may enrich both architecture and planning as multi-disciplinary professions. Man and the environment. Planning, the environment and designing. Planning before planners. Medieval European towns. Planning in the Industrial Era. Comprehensive planning. European great projects in the 20th century. Challenges for planning in modern and post-modern eras. Analyses for plan-making. Land-use planning and its contemporary issues. European spatial planning. A case of planning and development – Prague I. A case of planning and development – Prague II. Sustainability and planning. Role of a planner. Planning ethics. Presentation of seminar papers (essays).
