A growing number of people live within cities all around the world. The ageing and migrating population, climate change and technical and digital innovations are just a few examples of social issues that demand novel solutions. In our English-taught programme, you learn how to manage, shape, plan and design our changing cities and their environment.

This is an exchange programme from the School of Governance, Law and Urban Development.
A group of students working as a team.

Team work

During the programme, you and students from other Urban Studies courses work together to carry out projects. You will be trained to become an interdisciplinary ‘urban professional’, who knows how to connect people, design places, take a businesslike approach and define policymaking.
