UPAD 2014
1st INTERNATIONAL URBAN PLANNING-ARCHITECTURE-DESIGN CONGRESS
Kocaeli University Faculty of Architecture and Design –since its establishment- aims to
support Kocaeli and its periphery as an education field, and to contribute to Eastern
Marmara, Turkey and International Academia in terms of research and implementation
practices, with its academic-researcher-designer-practicer-scientist staff potentiality and the
educational and research experience. In this context, a congress titled
“1st International Urban Planning-Architecture-Design Congress” is being organised in
order to bring together the scientists of the field within an activity of international content and
quality. In the broadest approach, the objective of the congress is to create a medium for
academic, civil society and governmental stakeholders for sharing ideas, projects, research
and critics on urban planning, architecture and design. The congress -which will be held on
May 8-11, 2014 with a special focus on Kocaeli and the experience on
city/architecture/design- will contribute with the educational aspect on the “identity of
transferring scientific knowledge,” and it will also support the “qualified medium of producing
scientific knowledge” making use of the research aspect. Paper and poster presentations are
welcome for the congress. Official languages for the event are Turkish and English.
Abstracts for the presentations will be asked to be submitted in a format prepared in Turkish
and English. Although both languages will be accepted, English language is considered
preferable for wider international prevalence of the congress. During the congress, abstracts
and full-papers of the presentations in Turkish and English will be presented to the
contributors and panelists in a digital medium.
