Challenges to society, such as those posed by climate change require a new approach to the education of the engineer-architect. Contemporary solutions should serve future generations and that is why the idea of the resilient city should be discussed and implemented, both in theory and in practice. It is necessary to teach students to design urban structures in such a way that they are resilient to dynamically changing conditions. In this article, the authors have presented a new teaching model based on international co-operation: a joint design studio. In presenting opportunities, the authors have also identified challenges of this new approach based on their experience over three years of co-operation between Gdańsk University of Technology (GUT), in Gdańsk, Poland and Chalmers University of Technology (CUT), in Göteborg, Sweden. This teaching format could be a valuable instrument in the education of future engineers-architects. If properly implemented, it could also be beneficial for cities during the participatory design process.
