MA Urban Design: University of the West of England

Introduction

This programme is intended for all those who wish to embark on a career in Urban Design, to enhance their existing work in the field, or who wish to study it as a Master's subject in its own right.

The postgraduate Urban Design course at UWE Bristol - first established in 1992 - places emphasis on developing critical understanding and practical skills in Urban Design. It seeks to foster a sensitivity to the context and character of urban areas and to the needs and nature of the diverse clients of urban design. It also seeks to explore the ways in which the built environment can be more sustainable.

The course is structured on a modular basis and is an integral part of the School postgraduate scheme, which means that modules can, within reason, be taken in any order and at a pace to suit your commitments. Some modules are shared with the MA in Town and Country Planning, reflecting the continuity between these disciplines. Completion of all taught modules leads to the award of Postgraduate Diploma. The Master's award is subject to completion of the dissertation.
