Campuses as City Fragments: The Universitat Politècnica de València
Keywords:
University, territory, urban project, cityAbstract
University campuses comprise a unique model for an urban setting dictated by the
specificity of their functional program as it relates to their commitment to education and research.
The new territorial relationships and the new set of opportunities opened by technology can
condition the future of universities and require reformulating the principles followed to date.
Universities are no longer local centers of learning. Their dual regional and urban statuses make it
necessary to think of new strategies to reinforce and address the needs of citizens. Although recent
strategic plans at universities underscore their purpose by utilizing other terms such as innovation
hubs and public-private cooperation centers, the challenges must be expanded, and, together with
them, their space within the city. Universities must provide training to people that can meet the
most pressing needs of the corporate world while at the same time allowing them to make decisions
that create a complex citizenry, and give them the tools to offer solutions to the immediate city and,
in parallel, to respond to the new and unavoidable challenges of globalization.
