Overview

Urban Planning and Development is taught at a number of UK universities, and the entry terms are set department by department rather than nationally. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Urban and Regional Planning uses live project work wherever departments can arrange it with local firms.

If you are comparing this against two or three other courses, send us all of them. We will set the entry terms and the fees side by side.
