Overview

You engage with global debates and innovative strategies, addressing the transition to sustainable urban mobility, seeking to understand how transport can support the sustainable city. Engaging with sustainable mobility trends, theories and international case studies, you develop a comprehensive skill set preparing for a dynamic career in transport and urban planning.

The Transport and City Planning programme from UCL explores the theory underpinning transport and city planning along with the complexities of balancing environmental, social, and economic objectives.

It covers a wide range of topics from the context and rationale for transport, the psychological and sociological dimensions to mobilities, and infrastructure and project planning procedures and implementation.

Transport, planning, urban regeneration and environmental consultancies and agencies
