University education of architects for tourism planning in rural space

In 2018, slightly less than a third of the population lived in rural areas of the EU. The trend of population increase in rural areas of the EU from 2010 until today can only be seen as a possible indication of a future trend. Numerous challenges and needs of rural areas require a careful, interdisciplinary and comprehensive approach. The aim of this paper is to point out the necessity for an interdisciplinary education system for rural tourism planning through the education of architects and urban planners as well as the exchange of knowledge among students for such a system. In accordance with this idea, the undergraduate university study of architecture and urbanism at the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Architecture Osijek teaches Rurism with the aim of introducing students to modern trends in rural areas and adopting a methodology for creating spatial solutions, including the function of tourism. The paper presents the vertical integration of the learning outcomes of the course Rurism with the learning outcomes of other subjects and the outcomes of the study program. The methodology of work on the subject Rurism is explained and the results of student work in the academic years 2020/2021 and 2021/2022, presented in the context of the learning outcome matrix. An overview of the workflow, semester results and cooperation with other stakeholders indicate that the implementation of an interdisciplinary approach in the university education system for rural planning, tourism, entrepreneurship and sustainable development requires the involvement of architecture and urban studies and external stakeholders in order to ensure added quality and new knowledge about space.
