World Design Organization, of which we are an institutional member, defines industrial design in a nutshell as “a trans-disciplinary profession that harnesses creativity to resolve problems and co-create solutions with the intent of making a product, system, service, experience or a business, better.” Industrial designers place people at the heart of the process. They perceive user needs in depth through empathy and apply a pragmatic, user-centered problem solving process to design products, systems, services and experiences. They are the strategic shareholders of the innovation process and are in a unique position to bridge the gap between various professional disciplines and commercial interests. They value the economic, social and environmental effects of their work, as well as its contributions in the creation of a better quality of life. Founded in 2009, our department offers mandatory professional courses, technical courses and professional elective courses to prepare our students to become well-equipped and competitive in their business life.

Abstract

The city is a comprehensive, dynamic phenomenon which, in different forms, changes perpetually. The mission of urban management is to steer the change in a public and societal manner. Urban planning, on the other hand, is one of the most rational tools that will render the management fair, participating, reconciling and transparent characteristics. Within the framework of this approach, and within the scope of urban management and planning, the aim of this study is to explain the process of altering the urban space via urban sprawl and shrinkage policies, which are simultaneous and yet are triggered by differing factors and preferences. On the management level, generating urban policies for the implementations regarding the utilization of the land and space with different potentialities constitutes the ground for this context (Feagin, Gottdiener, 1988).
