About Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Urban Planning (Placement Year) (K431)

The Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Urban Planning course draws on the department's diverse expertise to provide students with the skills required to help them shape and design the world. This new course has been specifically developed with leading practitioners and the planning community to equip students with the latest skills and knowledge needed for a future in Urban Planning. A key feature of the course is the focus on developing students' digital and data skills needed for planning ‘smart cities’ which are highly attractive to graduate employers.

The course incorporates practical and hands-on experiences in many aspects of urban planning and design, helping students link theory to practice. It examines ways in which cities and urban environments have historically developed and been designed, whilst challenging students to propose visions of the future in order to make cities healthier, more vibrant, sustainable and safer. Students will focus on the role and potential of the planning profession to manage technological change in cities and exploit the potential of smart cities to enhance urban environments.

Urban Planning is a multidisciplinary subject and students will therefore benefit from studying in the School of Architecture, Building and Civil Engineering, which provides an integrated and holistic approach to studying this multifaceted discipline. As such, students will gain invaluable practical experience of working in interdisciplinary teams with Architecture, Civil Engineering and Construction Management students, giving them a unique insight into the role of planners in development projects, thereby simulating their potential future career. In addition, the course draws from the expertise of leading academics from across the School and University, in particular the Geography and Environment.
