Urban planners are engaged with pressing issues such as the impact of climate change, and pressures of urbanisation.
The Urban Planning major Handbook entry stipulates the complete requirements for the Urban Planning major.
Always use the University Handbook as your primary course planning tool.

If you complete non allowed breadth, you may be required to complete extra subjects in order to meet the requirements of your degree. Please look at the “Non-allowed Breadth Subjects within the Bachelor of Design - relating to specific majors” page on the Handbook. A list of non allowed breadth subjects for this major is available underneath the course plans below.
