本課程旨在培育景觀與建築領域之研究生，成為能夠因應超高齡社會挑戰的專業規劃設計者。課程目標是使學生系統性地掌握「高齡友善戶外空間」之核心知識與實務技能，從宏觀的政策脈絡到微觀的細部設計，培養其規劃與設計具包容性、無障礙、且能積極促進高齡者健康與社會參與之開放空間與公園。
課程內涵將依序引導學生：首先，深入理解全球與本地人口老化的趨勢、相關福利政策及高齡友善城市框架，建立宏觀的議題意識。其次，從環境老年學與高齡學出發，剖析高齡者在生理、心理、行為與社會層面的特徵與多元需求，作為以人為本的設計根基。核心部分在於，結合通用設計原則、高齡人體工學及環境行為學，深入探討如何透過實質環境設計，具體回應「安全安心」、「可及與導航」、「體能活動」、「社交互動」、「自然療癒」及「代間共融」等關鍵面向。
學生將透過國內外案例解析、設計準則研討及實作工作坊，學習整合上述元素，進行從基地分析、概念發展到方案呈現的完整設計流程。最終，課程期望學生不僅能完成單一公園的創新設計，更能具備思考社區層級開放空間系統規劃的策略思維，並以專業倫理與設計智慧，貢獻於提升高齡生活品質、推動成功老化與活躍老化之永續目標。

This course aims to cultivate graduate students in the fields of landscape and architecture to become professional planners and designers who can respond to the challenges of a super-aging society. The goal of the course is to enable students to systematically master the core knowledge and practical skills of "age-friendly outdoor spaces", from macro policy context to micro detailed design, and to cultivate their ability to plan and design open spaces and parks that are inclusive, barrier-free, and can actively promote the health and social participation of the elderly.
The content of the course will guide students in sequence: first, gain an in-depth understanding of global and local population aging trends, relevant welfare policies and age-friendly city frameworks, and establish a macro-level awareness of the issues. Secondly, starting from environmental gerontology and gerontology, we analyze the characteristics and diverse needs of the elderly at the physiological, psychological, behavioral and social levels, as the basis for human-centered design. The core part is to combine universal design principles, senior ergonomics and environmental behavior to deeply explore how to specifically respond to key aspects such as "safety and security", "accessibility and navigation", "physical activity", "social interaction", "natural healing" and "intergenerational integration" through physical environmental design.
Students will learn to integrate the above elements through domestic and foreign case analysis, design criteria discussions and practical workshops, and conduct a complete design process from base analysis, concept development to solution presentation. Ultimately, the course expects students to not only complete the innovative design of a single park, but also to have strategic thinking about community-level open space system planning, and to use professional ethics and design wisdom to contribute to the sustainable goals of improving the quality of life of the elderly and promoting successful and active aging.
