Overview
The Infrastructure Planning, Appraisal and Development programme from University College London (UCL) focuses on generic lessons and principles that apply across the different sectors, while also covering the sectoral and context-specific considerations that determine success in different development contexts.
Fieldwork
Students will have the opportunity to visit a selection of some of the most important European infrastructure projects during a one week trip. In this way students will be able to appreciate directly the way that different contexts, including cultural, political and institutional, frame infrastructure decision-making in its planning, appraisal and delivery.
In recent years students have visited and received specially arranged presentations from a wide range of senior professionals, civil servants and academics regarding:
- France’s High Speed TGV network
- The Rotterdam Central Station
- The Randstaad Rail and the Maeslant
- Barrier in the Netherlands
- The Brussels Station area development
- The Öresund Link in Sweden and Denmark
Teaching and learning
The programme is delivered through a combination of traditional lectures, tutorials and seminars, a field trip, individual and group project work, and skills-based practical project work, with direct practitioner involvement. Student performance is assessed through individual and group work, essays, examination and project work.
Careers
Students have gone on to take up positions in:
- fund management
- government
- international financial institutions
- international co-operation agencies
- investment banking
- community development
- academia
- consulting
- the construction industry
- research and academic institutions involved in the transport, energy, retailing and housing sectors, as well as in urban, regional and environmental planning.
