The interdisciplinary seminar forms a special basis for cooperation and international exchanges by means of听:
- the annual lecture cycle URBA/ISURU/AULNE, participation in the APERAU network, and on the other hand
- the annual study trip which normally gives rise to exchanges with the European university students enrolled in similar programs (Amsterdam 2003, Strasbourg 2004, Lausanne 2005, Naples 2006). 听
Interuniversity cooperation
The following scientific partnerships with URBA also contribute to the internationalisation of the program听:听 EPFL 脿 Lausanne (post-graduate 芦 Projets territoriaux et mutations spatiales 禄)/Universit茅 de la Sapienza 脿 Rome / Ecole Nationale Sup茅rieure des Paysages 脿 Versailles, /Ecole d鈥檃rchitecture Ville et Territoire 脿 Marnes la Vall茅e / Institut d鈥橴rbanisme de Paris/ UMSS 脿 Cochabamba (Bolivie) / Universit茅 catholique du Chili / etc. These exchanges give rise to exchanges between teachers and, increasingly, between students on their placements.听
Networks associated with the placement program 听听
Experience has shown that the placement program also constitutes a useful means of opening up the program to the outside world and greatly contributes to its appeal among the students. In this perspective, the advanced master鈥檚 can call on the networks of organisations which have hosted the students doing their placements from the former specialised diploma in urban and regional development.

Last year, certain students did their placements in development projects abroad. The partner countries are the following听: Bolivia (3), Cambodia (1), Chile (1), China (1), Equador (1), Spain (1), France (1), Mexico (1),Kenya (1).
