MSc Urban Regeneration and Development

University of Manchester

MSc Urban Regeneration and Development offers the knowledge and skills to shape the future of our cities, creating places that are inclusive, sustainable and resilient. You will explore how cities evolve, decline and regenerate, analysing the social, economic, political and environmental forces that drive urban change. Teaching combines critical understanding of policy and governance with the practical expertise needed to plan and deliver regeneration projects - from breathing new life into former industrial areas to developing thriving, liveable neighbourhoods. This programme provides a strong balance of academic insight and applied skills, preparing you to address pressing challenges such as housing inequality, economic redevelopment and climate adaptation. Our graduates progress to influential roles in the UK and internationally, working with local authorities, government agencies, regeneration partnerships, consultancies and major developers to deliver meaningful and lasting change.
