Postgraduate Town and Country Planning Courses

Town planners work to strike a balance between conflicting demands for housing, industrial development, agriculture, recreation, transport and the natural environment. Town plans are long-term, constantly examining and assessing proposals for new developments, listening to the views of those concerned, including conservationists, builders, venture capitalists and developers.

Town Planners will professionally advise government and council on planning, forecasting future trends as well as attempting to resolve old problems. Graduates can benefit hugely from a postgraduate qualification in Town and Country Planning, particularly if they wish to work in the public sector.
