Town Planning – What is it?

Town (or Urban) Planning promotes the establishment of economically viable, socially just, environmentally sustainable, and safe and healthy human settlements. It has never been more timely than now, as we adapt to global changes that impact our cities.

 

When it comes to job roles, urban planning graduates have a great deal of choice. There are opportunities in housing, transport planning, conservation, and of course, urban design. These jobs can be found in local authorities, such as councils, national governments, or in the private sector.

 

This industry is facing critically staff shortages now, so it is an opportune time to consider this career pathway.
