This Master's level programme prepares students fully for professional practice in town planning; it is concerned with the relationship of contemporary lifestyles and the spaces we live in; it focuses on the sustainability and regeneration agendas, and the role of planners in the development of space and place, in the context of a region experiencing major development pressures and environmental challenges and opportunities; the course develops not only professional knowledge and skills, but also the ability to analyse complex issues, make sound judgements, solve problems, communicate, and act autonomously; the course covers core aspects of planning activity ranging from development control and local planning through to European spatial strategy, development feasibility, and urban design; this is complemented by theoretical insights into the social and economic context of planning and its impact on society; development of the practical and capacity-building skills for the realisation of sustainable communities accompanies research, evaluative and reflective skills, culminating in a research project based on a specialist study area; students choose from specialisms in urban design, housing and planning, and waste, minerals, and environment.
