Example of Oświęcim AU - Paprzyca, Krystyna TI - Learning the Skill of Transforming the Reality of Urban Spaces by Students. Example of Oświęcim AB - Since 2015 students of different years and diploma candidates studying at the Faculty of Architecture, Cracow University of Technology, develop design studies and conceptual designs, which constitute design proposals for locations indicated by representatives of town councils. Students also prepare ‘investor’s offers’, which could constitute a starting point for studies devoted to feasibility of particular investments. In the era of job market competition, thanks to the collaboration along the line University – Local Government – Business, students acquire specific knowledge relating to the designing and investment process; they get to know different towns and cities, their specificity. Cooperation with young people opens up new opportunities, because sometimes some concepts and business activities can be perceived only by the young generation. Their approach and ideas contribute to the revival of urban spaces, as well.
