What will I learn?

The Graduate Diploma in City Planning at UNSW is a three-term postgraduate program that allows you to build on previous study or professional experience to upskill or progress into a career related to urban and regional planning. City planning is an exciting, varied and progressive profession that plays a pivotal role shaping the future of cities. Through a career in urban and regional planning, you’ll improve lives by designing cities that are sustainable, equitable, healthy and inspiring. As part of the Faculty of Arts, Design & Architecture you’ll join a uniquely interdisciplinary and supportive community. You’ll work alongside students and professionals from across the built environment, just as you would in the workplace. You’ll benefit from UNSW’s strong ties to industry and world-leading research in city planning, as you explore diverse subjects including city renewal, city analytics, housing policy and healthy sustainable communities. If you’d like to gain professional accreditation, you can progress into the Master of City Planning and gain credit points for courses studied.
