Built Environment · Architecture, building and planning
The built environment is facing a whole host of challenges, from urbanisation to climate change. Not to mention the increasing demand for housing, pressure on transport systems, and changes to the way we work which has left many offices empty. Designed with support from industry, our MSc Spatial Planning will help you take your first step towards chartership with RTIP and becoming the planner society needs. You’ll get insights from our researchers working on diverse projects in key areas like the urban planning concept of the 15-minute city, healthy cities, urban sustainability, Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), transportation, community development, strategic planning and many more. The flexibility of the course means you won’t have to put your career on hold while you level up your skills. As well as recent graduates, we accept professionals without traditional qualifications. We’ll look at your portfolio and help you decide if the course is the right step for you.

The MSc Spatial Planning programme attracts students from a wide and varied range of disciplinary backgrounds, including geography, environmental sciences, architecture and design, economics and politics. We also encourage applications from those already in employment (in planning or related fields) and seeking to further their professional development. A diversity of interests and skills is welcomed in this interdisciplinary programme.
