2 The MAS ETH in Housing and Human Settlements Our goal The MAS ETH in Housing and Human Settlements aims to contribute to attaining the goals of the New Urban Agenda that was adopted by the United Nations Conference on Housing and Sustainable Development (Habitat III) in October 2016 and that has expressed its determination to reinvigorate commitment to housing and sustainable urban development. The challenges to ensure adequate and affordable housing for all in an increasingly complex and urbanized world are immense: globally Goals and target group The MAS ETH in Housing and Human Settlements is committed to contribute to finding solutions to the housing challenges in Switzerland, Europe, as well as in low- and middle-income countries globally through multi-disciplinary training and high-level research. The MAS focuses on assessing the housing challenges and on the viability, effectiveness and sustainability of a wide range of housing and neighbourhood development strategies a billion new houses are needed by 2025 to accommodate 50 million new urban dwellers per year; around one quarter of the world s urban population continue to live in slums and informal settlements and an increasing number of people live in precarious conditions. Access to adequate and affordable housing is a challenge not only for the poor in low-income countries but also for large numbers of people living in, or migrating to middle-and highincome countries, including Switzerland. Facing these challenges requires highly pursued by communities, cooperatives, local governments, nongovernmentaland governmental agencies, and international organisations in different countries and contexts. The MAS ETH in Housing and Human Settlements is primarily, but not exclusively, oriented to professionals with a background in architecture, urban planning or urban design, but is also open to candidates from other disciplines with an interest in housing. motivated professionals with a specific training like the one offered by the ETH MAS in Housing and Human Settlements. The MAS is thus primarily oriented towards built environment professionals committed towards contributing in their own country or internationally to the improvement of the quality of housing and human settlements. Participants will develop a broad understanding of housing challenges through a critical study of the multiple strategies and options aiming at meeting the needs of the world s most disadvantaged groups, including the urban poor, migrants, refugees, the homeless, the elderly and disabled, and the people displaced by conflicts, disasters and climate change; they will acquire skills which will enable them to become leaders in implementing housing policies and programmes in their own countries and in the framework of international development cooperation. «On reflection the MAS ETH in Housing gave me the skills and confidence to pursue specialist intersets at an advanced level. The experience gave me the courage to set up my own practice on return to New Zealand, which is now a partnership with 26 staff. I suggest the MAS Housing course to anyone looking to pursue self driven studies in this area in an international context.» Harriet Pilkington Architect MAS ETH Director, Young + Richards Ltd. About the ETH Centre for Research on Architecture, Society and the Built Environment The ETH Centre for Research on Architecture, Society and the Built Environment (CASE) was founded within the Department of Architecture at the ETH Zurich in 1990 as an interdisciplinary research centre for the analysis of housing processes and their links to people s socio-economic conditions, as well as to spatial and urban development. The ETH CASE is involved in education, research and advisory services in the field of housing and neighbourhood 2 3
3 development, cooperative housing, adequate and affordable housing for lowincome families, refugees, and the elderly. The multi-disciplinary team believes in an integrated and holistic approach to the generation of knowledge on housing. We are committed to participatory, peoplecentred, age-, gender- and minoritysensitive housing approaches. We believe that cultural diversity is a source of socioeconomic enrichment that can make an important contribution to sustainable urban development. The MAS ETH in Housing and Human Settlements The MAS ETH in Housing and Human Settlements builds upon the MAS ETH in Housing that was launched at the ETH in Its updated curriculum reflects the ETH CASE extended research focus and commitment towards housing challenges not only in Switzerland, but also in Europe and in low- and middle-income countries globally. So far the MAS programme enrolled students from over 30 countries forming a vibrant international network of alumni among whom exchanges and collaborations extend well beyond the completion of their studies at the ETH Zurich. In fact, the programme also aims to generate long-term collaborations between professionals and researchers in Switzerland and abroad. The programme The MAS ETH in Housing and Human Settlements focuses on housing challenges and solutions of the 21st century, with reference to Switzerland, Europe and in low- and middle-income countries globally. While such different contexts may appear to have little in common, in an increasingly globalized and urbanized world they also share similar challenges: How to provide affordable and adequate housing for low-income groups? How can the growing number of people displaced by conflicts, climate change, natural disasters, and erosion of livelihoods be adequately housed? How do demographic changes influence housing expectations, needs and demands? How to rebuild houses that have been damaged or destroyed by natural and man-made disasters? What are the links between adequate housing, Academic title Successful graduates in the MAS programme acquire the academic degree Master of Advanced Studies ETH in Housing and Human Settlements. Duration The MAS is a full-time 12-months study programme beginning in September every year. A total of 72 credit points must be acquired in order to obtain the MAS ETH degree in Housing and Human Settlements. Upon request, the MAS course may also be completed over a period of 24 months. Language of instruction Lectures, seminars, workshops, reading material and individual coaching by academic advisors are all in English. The MAS thesis is also written and defended in English. However, it is possible to take some courses in German and to write the sustainable neighbourhoods, human development and quality of life? thesis in any Swiss national language (German, French or Italian). Tuition fees The tuition fees are 9000 Swiss Francs + approx. CHF 1500 for one-week seminar trip and two excursions. The tuition fees include excursions, but do not include living expenses. The fees are payable in two instalments: the first instalment is due in October and the second instalment in April Infrastructure MAS participants are enrolled as students at ETH Zurich and are entitled to the use of all academic facilities, including student computer rooms, excellent libraries with electronic access to a wide range of journals, discounted meals in student cafeterias, as well as access to sport and leisure facilities. 4 5
4 Thematic Focus Building upon the academic, research and professional experience of the ETH CASE and its partners, the MAS ETH in Housing and Human Settlements focuses on a number of interlinked thematic areas that will be analysed in the framework of four specific modules. Module 1: Housing research and evaluation methods This module introduces the course participants to the research and evaluation methods and tools currently used in housing studies. Particular emphasis is given to qualitative and participatory methods that are employed to assess the adequacy of housing from the perspective of different stakeholders, including a wide range of dwellers, policy makers, and experts. Within the framework of this module the participants will also learn how to conceptualize a research project, develop their methodology, organize their own fieldwork, analyse their data and write a thesis on a topic of their own choice. Module 2: Cultural, socioeconomic, demographic and political aspects of housing and human settlements Housing is essential to the well-being of individuals, families and communities. Housing and human settlements are mirrors of the cultures and societies that produce them and clearly reflect their socio-economic and political organization, livelihoods and lifestyles. Housing and 6 7
5 neighbourhood conditions have strong effects on people s health and wellbeing, education and employment opportunities, as well as their security and quality of life. Housing and neighbourhoods are constantly evolving and are strongly influenced by national policies, development strategies and building regulations, which determine people s options and choices. Demographic changes resulting from phenomena such as declining mortality and fertility rates that are leading to aging urban population and an increasing number of households consisting of single persons have a strong impact on housing demands that may reflect on specific demographic and socio-spatial landscapes, such as lifestyle housing, gated communities, and urban segregation. By addressing these topics, the MAS intends to raise awareness among building professionals on the interlinkages between socio-economic, cultural and demographic aspects of housing and the built environment and to trigger a critical reflection about the implications on housing policies and practices. Module 3: Adequate housing and neighbourhood development strategies Finding adequate housing solutions that people can afford is one of the most daunting challenges of the 21 st century. Indeed, for an increasingly large number of people affordable housing is inadequate and adequate housing is unaffordable 1. The module starts by reflecting upon the meaning of the concept of adequate housing by underlining that a house is more than four walls and a roof: with reference to the seven criteria that according to the International Covenant for Economic, «MAS ETH in Housing can pave the road to a smoother and more confident academic career. Studying and living in a international context such as Zurich is one of the richest experiences I have ever had. It enabled me to exchange experiences, experience new cultures and make new friends and colleagues for life from all over the world.» Elvan Daiko Architect MAS ETH Deputy Director IKZH-Institute for Research and development POLIS University, Tirana 1 Habitat III.

6 Social and Cultural Rights 2 define adequate housing: security of tenure, availability of services, materials, facilities and infrastructure, affordability, habitability, accessibility, location, and cultural adequacy. These criteria clearly indicate that housing adequacy needs to be analysed with reference to its broader political, socio-economic context and geographic context, i.e. the country, the settlement and the neighbourhood. The module focuses on causes and consequences of the lack of adequate and affordable housing, on the strategies that individuals and communities pursue to meet their need for shelter when formal housing is not affordable to them (e.g. self-help and incremental housing in informal settlements and on the role of housing policies, projects and building professionals in making informal building practices adequate. The module also focuses on the role of public and private entities in different historical, socioeconomic and cultural contexts in the provision of affordable housing through various strategies, such as conventional social housing, aided self-help housing, cooperative housing, incentives to the private sector, etc. Module 4: Housing for migrants, refugees, and people displaced by disasters Forced displacement has dramatically increased globally over the last years; 2 Office for the High Commission for Human Rights (OHCHR).

7 over 65.3 million people were forced to abandon their homes in 2015, accounting to about people a day. The majority flees to cities in their own country with only about one third among them becoming refugees in another country. About 1.5 million among them came to Europe. Providing housing solutions for these particularly vulnerable people is a major challenge for their hosting countries and communities that requires creative, socio-culturally sensitive and affordable solutions. Through a review of global strategies, policy instruments and case studies, the MAS focuses on the multiple options to provide durable housing solutions to migrants and refugees and on the role of planners and building professionals in making such solutions adequate and affordable Particular attention will be given in this module to housing reconstruction after disasters, which often involves large numbers of national agencies, international organisations and building professionals committed to building back better and safer 3 Rebuilding large numbers of «The course of studies in the MAS Housing Programme at the ETH is not simply an important step on your career ladder, but is learning for life.

8 Programme structure and content The MAS ETH programme in Housing Studies consists of an intensive 12-months programme, divided in three blocks: The first block takes place during the Autumn Semester (September-December); the participants acquire theoretical knowledge and methodological instruments to analyse and compare various housing strategies in different socio-cultural contexts and with reference to different populations groups (e.g. aging people, migrants, refugees, slum dwellers, people displaced by disasters) through lectures, seminars and working groups. These will be provided by the ETH CASE core team and by invited lectures with relevant academic and professional experience. The first block includes: 4 core courses These courses are specifically designed and exclusively oriented to the MAS participants focusing research methods, key concepts, theories and policies related housing strategies in Switzerland, Europe and the Global South. Elective courses: At least 3 additional elective courses for a total of 6 ECT have to be followed by the MAS students. These can be selected from the wide range of courses offered by the Department of Architecture or from other ETH departments. Individual and group guidance: During the first block the participants will also be coached through the development of a concept paper on a topic for their own research and thesis that will focus on a particular aspect related to any of thematic areas covered by the programme. Seminar week: In line with the ETH tradition, the seminar week constitutes an integral component of the MAS in Housing. The seminar week generally takes place in a European country and focuses on key topics of the MAS. It provides an opportunity to visit projects and meet with related communities and stakeholders. Excursions: Organised excursions in Switzerland offer the opportunity to MAS participants to learn through observation and a direct interaction with relevant stakeholders related to the Swiss strategies towards adequate and affordable housing, in particular its housing cooperatives. The second block (January-February) takes place in the semester break. This period will be dedicated to the participants individual research projects. We encourage participants to conduct empirical research on relevant issues in their own country or on a subject related to their personal professional experience or interests. Whenever possible we will also facilitate opportunities to conduct research in the framework of housing projects executed by our partners. The third block (March-August) is dedicated to writing the thesis under the supervision of the ETH CASE scientific staff and its partners. During this period the participants will be stimulated to reflect upon their research findings and guided in writing their theses in the framework of a weekly seminar and individual coaching 14 15
9 Studying at ETH and living in Zurich The MAS in Housing and Human Settlements is intensive and demanding, but participants find time to enjoy an active student life. Zurich is a very attractive and dynamic multi-cultural city, offering a high quality of life and a wide range of cultural and recreational activities. Zurich is wellknow all over the world for its good housing governance and for the important role of the city as a provider of affordable housing. A high number of innovative housing cooperatives reflect a strong tradition of bottom-up, community-driven initiatives, enabling housing policies and collaborative housing organizations. Leading architects have contributed to translate cooperatives housing aspirations into high-value affordable and sustainable housing complexes that we will have the opportunity to visit in the framework of the MAS programme. «The MAS ETH in Housing course was a wonderful opportunity to grow both professionally and personally. It gave me the tools to learn how to do research and to produce knowledge. I recomend attending the course if you re ready to challenge yourself and if you are interested in having an ambitious cultural exchange where you will enrich your professional future.» Maria Florencina Medina Architect MAS ETH Executive Editor of PLOT magazin 16 17
