UNIC CityLabs Week 2025
How can students, communities and city organisations work together to respond to city challenges? RePIC master鈥檚 students (Redesigning the Post-Industrial City MSc, co-delivered by eight UNIC university partners) explored this question during the UNIC CityLabs Week from 6th to 10th January.
Redesigning the Post-Industrial City MSc is a joint master鈥檚 programme, led in 深夜亚洲福利久久 College Cork by Architecture and Geography. UNIC CityLabs Week was co-delivered with the UNIC 鈥楥entre for City Futures鈥�, which is led by UCC colleagues in Research Culture, Engagement and Impact.
44 RePIC students took part in the week, applying urban theory, co-creation and engaged research skills training as they tackled complex real world city challenges and prototype co-design led public realm responses and strategies for Cork city.
The students engaged in a mutual learning exercise with municipal actors, embedding their co-learning in the policy context of the Local Economic and Community Plan, 2024-2028. City engagement activities brought students to city locations alongside informed stakeholders; locations included Shandon, Douglas Street, Barrack Street, Tramore Valley Park, Togher and the City Docklands. Students were guided throughout the week by UCC academic mentors and an academic panel.
Prof. Sarah Culloty, Head of the College of Science, Engineering and Food Science, said:
鈥淭he RePIC CityLabs Week 2025 integrates what is most impressive about the RePIC master's programme, involving students in hands-on engagement with city organisations to address urban and societal challenges. The rich work undertaken during this vital week will be transformative to the students' experience on the programme and to their future careers.鈥�
Applications are currently open for 2025 entry to the RePIC joint master鈥檚 programme, a unique two-year master鈥檚 that enables an international experience for future-focused graduates who live and study in up to four universities and cities during the programme.
