Highly skilled Urban Planning graduates are in high demand with various areas of employment available, including environmental consultancy, local development planning, urban regeneration, urban design and transport planning.
Graduates from similar courses have progressed into roles within local authorities, public bodies, consultancies and advocacy, and non-governmental organisations.
The skills of Urban Planning graduates are also very desirable in professions beyond planning. Employers are particularly attracted to planning students’ skills in analysis, critical thinking and communication.
