The MSc Spatial Planning and Development aims to put you on the road to being a good planner.
Professionally recognised
Fully accredited by the Royal Town Planning Institute and the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors - providing access to membership.
Gain practical experience
Work on live projects with real clients such as a planning authority or agency and benefit from the experience of a range of guest speakers from practices.
Accelerate your career
Develop skills and knowledge directly relevant to planning and development roles in public, private and voluntary sectors in order to create stronger, liveable, and prosperous places.
Flexible study
Full-time or part-time study is available allowing you the option to complete the degree in one year or work part time and complete it in two years.
Our MSc in Spatial Planning and Development (accredited by the RTPI and RICS) is the ideal starting point for your career as a planner or surveyor and will develop and strengthen your core planning and development skills, relevant and applicable to a range of spatial scales. It will provide you with the theoretical knowledge, critical insight and practical abilities to achieve your ambitions and positively contribute to the practices and policies of planning and development, in the UK and beyond.
Planning and development is often undertaken in diverse, and sometimes unequal or unjust societies and can be the subject of debate and struggle. This is why, while acquiring the specialist skills you will need to succeed, we’ll also help you nurture your professional judgement and be sensitive to wider ethical, political and environmental challenges. We'll empower you to question the status quo and challenge your own thinking to form and articulate independent conclusions.
Our focus is on planning and development in advanced market economies, especially the UK and Europe, but the programme’s exploration of planning and development is comparative, and the skills taught are applicable in many planning contexts.
