Sažetak
The process of urbanization is one of the strongest factors affecting urban growth. There are two types of urbanization: economic and demographic one. The two are reversible processes ; in the first type the population is drawn to the city by the economy, while in the latter, the economy is drawn to the city by the population. This parallelism proves that without economy and population there can be no growth of cities. The described situation constantly requires new and quality management of urban environment and urban infrastructure, as well as urban managers and experts capable of creating complex policies and actions that preserve the health and well-being of urban population, and help in creating attractive and sustainable cities. The paper will elaborate on possibilities of applying modern web technologies in tertiary education using the example of the Faculty of Economics in Osijek, specifically in the course Urban Economics. The aim of this novel approach is to improve interactive communication, and to make broader use of web technologies in the process of higher education. Furthermore, the goal of this interdisciplinary approach to the phenomenon of urban management is to contribute to the creation of a new type of economic experts by combining several scientific disciplines, particularly economics and urban planning, which is why the impact of the analyzed web site location was investigated.
