Sustainable Urban Development

MSc in Sustainable Urban Development (part-time) 

Course Code | 001481 

Professional Development (CPD) Centre offers a part-time, two-year MSc in Sustainable Urban Development.

The aim of the MSc is to offer an intellectually-rigorous and theoretically-grounded programme that:

• unites the study of urbanism and sustainability
• is international in scope
• is based on a multidisciplinary approach and structure
• provides a strong knowledge basis to professional practice in the area

The MSc is modular and designed for those in full-time employment, both in the UK and overseas.

• Length of programme – Two years
• Course options and programme specification
• We reserve the right not to run all or part of the programme if the number of successful applicants falls below a minimum threshold

While we do not offer a DPhil programme in this subject, we may be able from time to time to take exceptional research students where we are able to offer appropriate supervision and either we, or, where relevant, the applicant's employer, can provide appropriate facilities. Applicants would need to demonstrate that they have skills and competencies in Sustainable Urban Development.

The DPhil would be available on a part-time basis, to be completed in a minimum of four years, and would normally start in October. Informal enquires should be directed to the MSc course director.
