Course Details

This course allows you to study a range of contemporary themes within human geography, including globalisation, sustainability, identity and the diversity of human living, at the same time as learning about the role that planning plays in helping to shape our cities and towns and make them better places for us to live.

You will engage with live projects through a wide range of field trips, from half-day site visits in Leeds to week-long international field trips, giving you the opportunity to apply your classroom learning in the real world. You will also be entitled to free student membership of the Royal Town Planning Institute.

Course Benefits

Many of our academics are active in or have previous experience of working in planning practice, and guest lecturers provide further professional links. This also leads to opportunities for hands-on experience via participation in real-world projects and consultations.

A special and unique feature of our course are the international field trips visiting places such as Lille in France during your first year and Kaunas in Lithuania in year two. This gives you the chance to experience different urban and cultural environments, as well as working alongside students from other universities on joint fieldwork projects.

We also encourage you to take advantage of the study abroad and international volunteering opportunities that our University offers. You will have the chance to study abroad for one semester - usually in your second year - and you can choose from a wide selection of universities. Popular choices include Macquaire University in Sydney, Australia and the University of San Diego in America.

As our course is relatively small you will benefit from a greater proportion of individual contact time and feedback from tutors. The friendly, informal nature of the department is a distinctive feature of our course.
