Issues of architectural and urban organization of university campuses of the Ural federal district

Abstract

Campus of a higher educational institution is a multifunctional complex of buildings designed to accommodate university departments connected by a system of special public spaces that form a unified environment for higher education, scientific research, as well as a wide range of related functions in the "worklife-rest" system of all levels for participants in these processes. The purpose of the research work is to develop the existing campuses of higher educational institutions. The object of the study is university campuses. The subject of the study is the features of the architectural and urban planning organization of university campuses. According to the type of architectural and urban planning placement of university campuses in the settlement structure, three types are defined: compact (local), multipart (dissected) and dispersed (dispersed). Typology features are formulated on examples of universities of the Ural Federal District. It is determined that in the conditions of the region under consideration, the most rational organization of campuses is a compact (local) and multipart (dissected) type. It is revealed that the existing architectural environment does not fully meet the requirements for modern universities. In this regard, proposals for the development of existing university campuses are presented, taking into account aspects of the transformation of spaces, interaction with the settlement and integration of the functions of science, education and production.
