is an architect and Professor of Architecture and Territorial Planning at the Department of Architecture, ETH Zurich. Her work addresses territories beyond-the-city and transformation processes they are exposed to, through the movement of capital, social restructuring and environmental change. She undertook studies in remote regions, resource hinterlands and countrysides, in an effort to decenter and ecologise architect’s approaches to the city, the urban, and urbanisation.
From 2011–15 Milica held a research professorship at the Singapore–ETH Centre. In 2006, she joined the ETH as Head of Research at the ETH Studio Basel Contemporary City Institute. She graduated with distinction from the Faculty of Architecture in Belgrade in 1999 and received a master’s degree from the Berlage Institute in 2001. Since 2021, Milica co-directs the ETH Zurich / EPFL Master of Advanced Studies in Urban and Territorial Design with Paola Viganò.
