The course aims to provide a broad education in international planning and development, enabling students to acquire the knowledge and critical understanding to make a significant contribution to the management of humansettlements and urban systems. The course is divided into two parts: Part 1, which includes the core and option modules, and Part 2, which requires the preparation of a dissertation on a chosen aspect of planning and development.

The course focuses on issues relating to the growth and development of emerging cities and on planning practice and the management of urban change. It provides a foundation for understanding processes of urban growth, economic development, globalisation, and space and society, within different political, cultural, economic and environmental contexts.
