Application Guidelines for UIA2011 TOKYO Student CompetitionUIA2011东京学生竞赛申请指南The International Union of Architects (UIA) invites students who study architecture all over the world to an international architectural design competition under the theme “DESIGN 2050” of UIA2011 TOKYO, to be held in September 2011.国际建筑师联盟（UIA）邀请世界各地学习建筑的学生参加于2011年9月举行的以主题为“设计2050”的UIA2011东京设计竞赛。
■ORGANIZER■主办The International Union of Architects (UIA)国际建筑师联盟■IMPLEMENTATION■实施方UIA2011 TOKYO Japan Organizing Board (JOB)UIA2011日本东京组织委员会（JOB）■PURPOSE■目的Today, Japan is facing drastic transformations in the domains of politics, society and the economy. In the disciplines of Architecture and Urban Engineering, there are a variety of controversies regarding how to cope with the post-urban growth era and environmental preservation, and how to promote the engagement of communityresidents into planning. Especially, in these fields, we are on the cusp of a new era;e.g. transfer of various authorities to local governments, urban shrinking caused by a combination of the declining birthrate and aging population, and private sector increasingly taking the initiative in public projects (utilization of the private sector’s capabilities). These macro scale transformations (administrative systems) are progressing in the social and industrial spheres, and by the year 2050 we can expect a considerable degree of realization of the transformations in the real world.In the Student Design Competition, urban engineering and architecture plans geared for 2050 for the greater Kasumigaura urban area in the southern Ibaragi prefecture, and Tsukuba, Tsuchiura and Inashiki, the principal cities in the area, are expected, as the area has noteworthy characteristics in Japan, the host country of the 2011 UIA Congress.The region is located within a 60km radius of the global city of Tokyo. Proposals for a new urban area are expected, which take into consideration how the metamorphosing capital, Tokyo, affects the region. Also, to what extent the concept of ―Smart Region‖ and ―Smart City‖ can be developed in 2050 would also be subject matter for the proposals.今天，日本正面临着政治，社会和经济的领域急剧转变。
在建筑和城市工程的学科，有关于如何处理后城市增长的时代和环境的保护，以及如何推动社区居民参与到规划中的各种争论。
特别是，在这些领域，我们正处在一个新时代的风口浪尖;如各权利移交给地方政府，城市萎缩由出生率下降和人口老龄化的结合所致，而私营部门越来越多地在公共工程项目掌握主动权（私营部门的能力利用率）。
这些宏观角度转变（行政系统）是在社会进步和工业领域，到2050年我们可以预期在现实世界中实现相当程度的转变。
在此次学生设计竞赛中，城市工程和建筑计划旨在2050年在霞浦规划，位于茨城县南部，以及筑波，土浦和稻敷，该地区的主要城市，为在日本（2011UIA的东道国）该地区值得人们注意的特征区。
该地区是位于东京都60公里。
为了一个新区的提案，考虑的是如何改变和影响首都东京。
此外，在何种程度上基于“智能地区”与“智能城市”概念在2050年也可以形成。

Theme 1: Tsukuba Science City "Architectural Plan for International Medical and Nursing Center"主题1：筑波科学城的“国际医疗及护理中心建筑计划”The target of design under this theme is establishment of an International Medical and Nursing Center (I.M.N.C.) affiliated with Tsukuba University.Study Area根据本主题的设计目标是建立一个国际医疗及护理中心隶属于筑波大学附属护理院（IMNC）Tsukuba Science City is a leading example of a city in Japan dedicated primarily to research and academic advancement, containing 45 national research institutions and about 300 private research centers and companies, and 4 higher educational institutions including Tsukuba National University.In December 2009, the population of Tsukuba City was estimated to be 212,940, but this figure is projected to increase to around 280,000 by 2030. The total area of Tsukuba City is 284 km².The International Medical and Nursing Center (I.M.N.C.) will accept students and researchers from Japan as well as from countries around the globe specializing in medicine and nursing, and foster research on advanced medical treatment. Simultaneously, the Center will also aim to promote activities to cooperate closely with and support various United Nations-related organizations, the International Red Cross and universities, medical centers and research institutes of both developed and developing countries, in order to improve medical and nursing care, in particular in Asian, African and Central & South American countries.The Katsuragi District can be considered as the new core center of Tsukuba City with the new main office of Tsukuba City Hall. The location being proposed as the building site for the I.M.N.C. is quite excellent; a short distance to ―Research and Education (Kenkyu-Gakuen) Station‖ of Tsukuba Express Line (Railway) and Tsukuba University Hospital.研究范围筑波科学城是一个在日本主要致力于研究和学术发展的典范城市，包括45个国家研究机构和大约300个私人研究中心和企业，以及4高等教育机构，包括国立大学筑波。
