Program Overview
Do you want to pursue a career in shaping the built environment to promote sustainable development and climate change adaptation? Through policy formulation and the management of development in local areas, spatial planners play a key role in the delivery of sustainable development and climate change action in the built and natural environments. Our fully accredited postgraduate pathway will prepare you to develop or enhance your career as a chartered town planner in a rapidly changing world.
Develop a comprehensive knowledge of planning, enabling critical evaluation of evidence from a range of perspectives related to the natural and built environment. As an RTPI fully accredited postgraduate pathway, core modules cover the general foundation of spatial planning (including urban design), and specialisms reflect planning issues relevant to south-west England and existing strengths within the University. Our programme will enable you to develop a professional career in planning in the public, private or voluntary sector. We offer a supportive learning environment with small-group teaching and extensive interaction with our staff, emphasising the critical skills necessary for professional effectiveness in planning-related careers.
Key Features
- Develop broad-based, multidisciplinary and cross-professional approaches to place making and the planning and management of the built and physical environment for sustainable development.
- Deepen your understanding through specialist options.
- Explore planning issues of particular relevance to south-west England, set within the context of national and international experience.
- Expand your skills through applied and experiential learning, including fieldwork, practicals, case studies, role play, debates and engagement with professional practitioners.
- Benefit from a supportive learning environment with an emphasis on small-group teaching and high levels of staff-student interaction.
