Notes about "urban studies" in architectral studies.Paths and current concerns.

Drawing on both bibliographic references and discussions around related educational experiences, this article aims, on the one hand, to selectively highlight pathways of the "study of the city" within architectural studies at the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA) and, on the other hand, to explore the significance of the "study of the city" today, as well as the challenges it faces in relation to the broader transformations of the current context. Within the framework of this tribute, this analysis inherently includes fragments of the history of the NTUA School of Architecture, albeit selectively, as it sheds light on only certain aspects of the tradition of the "study of the city."
