Course Overview

This degree incorporates a year in planning practice, equipping you with valuable work experience and putting you on the path to Chartered Town Planner status. Newcastle provides the ultimate case study for planning students. The rise and decline of industry and the recent cultural renaissance have turned the city into a 'living laboratory' for exploration and study. You'll study the same program as our Urban Planning BA Honours degree for your first three years, developing a thorough grounding in planning processes, city design, conservation, housing policy, and more. In your final year, you'll be able to decide whether to specialize in either planning and regeneration, or environmental planning. You'll study fascinating topics such as design awareness, environmental sustainability, and housing policy, and participate in a range of field trips and projects to see planning in action.
