Distinguish the spaces we all experience
Urban designers transform streets, squares, malls and other public areas to enhance community, cultivate culture and draw people.
They’re creative and strategic. They make sure the city areas experienced by residents, workers, shoppers and visitors are attractive, usable and safe.
What will you do?
Our Master of Planning (Urban Design) is accredited by the Planning Institute of Australia. It gives you the skills and knowledge to design functional and attractive urban spaces. You will:
study the broad context of urban development and planning
understand urban design principles in depth
learn techniques for engaging communities in planning
consider environmental impacts and relationships
explore planning policy and law
apply your learning in real-life planning simulations and a major culminating design project.
Where could it take you?
You could use colour and texture to transform city squares and walkways. You might beautify buildings and clean city air at the same time with vertical gardens and living walls. Perhaps you’ll design spaces that encourage learning, play and socialising between strangers.
