2 UCD School of Geography, Planning and Environmental Policy Welcome to GPEP We are a community of scholars and students of human and physical geography and the applied fields of professional spatial planning and environmental policy. We are an international group searching for greater understanding of our living environment and the natural, socio-economic and political processes that underpin it. The School members seek to provide the knowledge and analytical tools to explain and model the dynamics of physical landscapes and environmental processes, and the interrelationship between people and places at all geographical scales. To address the pressing international, national and local challenges in implementing sustainable development and improving quality of life via environmental policy and spatial planning, GPEP provides the very best in terms of interdisciplinary teaching and research. We offer our students, the policy makers and the community at large, a resource unmatched in terms of internationally recognised quality, relevance and competitiveness.
3 Graduate Programmes MSc City Planning and Resilience (1 year) Why is this Course for Me? By 2050 it is forecast that approximately two thirds (6 billion) of the world s population will be urban dwellers. While the growth of urban areas offers significant opportunities, it also poses profound challenges. To address these challenges and harness the opportunities we need graduates who can understand the multifaceted nature of urban areas. The MSc City Planning and Resilience will provide a unique blend of knowledge and skills relating to urban development, spatial planning and design, equipping you to engage with the development of more resilient, liveable, urban places at a range of spatial scales. As an RTPI accredited specialist masters programme, the MSc allows those who have completed an RTPI recognised three year undergraduate spatial planning degree to complete the educational requirements for qualification as a professional chartered planner. What Will I Study? The MSc in City Planning and Resilience will provide you with the skills and knowledge to understand the challenges of, and provide innovative, creative and environmentally sustainable solutions for, planning and managing urban change and creating more resilient urban areas. Within the programme you will have the opportunity to develop practical and transferrable skills including GIS, design, negotiation and project management. The programme thus combines theoretical knowledge with practical skills by complementing academic study with input from planning practitioners working in the private and public sector.
4 MSc City Planning and Resilience UCD School of Geography, Planning and Environmental Policy In each of the first two semesters core modules on topics like urban and regional development, smart cities and housing and community resilience are complemented by a choice of option modules which will allow you to further specialise in areas of interest within the overall theme of city planning and resilience. In the second semester you will undertake an urban design studio project which will introduce you to design led solutions to urban challenges, with significant interface with practitioners. Finally, in the third semester you will complete your own individual thesis/research project on a topic of relevance to the planning and management of urban areas. Career Prospects For those with an undergraduate degree in planning the MSc City Planning and Resilience grants the specialist component which will provide the route to a career as a professional planner. Prospective employers include national and international planning agencies and institutes, local authorities, government departments, planning and planning related consultancy firms, public and private utility firms, local development and community development agencies, environmental and other NGOs, universities and research institutes. For those with other undergraduate degrees the MSc will provide a range of academic and transferrable skills that will be of benefit to careers in the public and private sectors and in NGOs. These include development firms, regeneration agencies, environmental NGOS, utility companies and large multinational firms with an interest in the creation of smarter cities. Entry Requirements Applicants should have at least a second class honours degree (2.2) or equivalent. We welcome applications from students with a background in a wide range of disciplines including: human and social sciences, engineering, architecture and busines. If you want to pursue the MSc City Planning and Resilience as a specialist professional planning masters
5 Graduate Programmes MSc City Planning and Resilience degree you must have already completed an RTPI accredited spatial planning programme at undergraduate level (e.g. a 3 year BA or BSc programme in planning). Students without a spatially accredited undergraduate degree who would like to pursue a professional planning degree should please see the information on our 2 year MRUP degree. Further information Director of MSc City Planning and Resilience: Dr. Paula Russell paula.russell@ucd.ie Graduate Administrator: gpep.postgrad@ucd.ie Further information on application process, fees etc, available on: Margaret Galvin, Planning Student There is a great mix of group work and individual assignments throughout the degree, while the thesis provides opportunities to carry out research on a subject that you are interested in. Urban design was my favourite module and was very much hands on with a great opportunity to be creative and converse with professional architects and urban designers. Lectures were enjoyable, the academic staff were really helpful and there is a great community and atmosphere among both students and staff. This Masters is a great basis to build a future career in the built environment.
6 UCD School of Geography, Planning and Environmental Policy Master of Regional and Urban Planning (2 years) Why is this course for me? In today s complex and rapidly changing world, with the threats posed by climate change, economic crisis, and rapid urban growth, planners face the challenge of creating places that combine good environmental quality with a vibrant economy, good quality of life and distributive justice. This two year professional planning degree will provide you with the first steps to becoming a professional chartered planner who can help address these challenging issues. The degree is accredited by the Royal Town Planning Institute and the Irish Planning Institute and these qualifications are internationally recognised. What will I study? Within the MRUP programme you will develop an understanding of the administrative, legal and policy frameworks in which spatial planning operates and the social political, economic and environmental challenges facing planning. You will become familiar with the use and application of GIS methodologies and will develop skills in plan making and transportation planning. Depending on your interests you can choose to specialize in either development and design or environmental planning. You will also develop transferrable skills, including spatial analysis, project management, media-
7 Graduate Programmes tion and advocacy, organisational management and leadership skills, problem solving and decision making and communication. In each year of the programme you will have the opportunity to develop and apply these skills and knowledge in an integrated practical project. In the final Semester of your second year you will undertake an independent piece of research and will complete a thesis. Master of Regional and Urban Planning Career Prospects Graduates of the MRUP are to be found working as professional planners in both the public and private sector. Our graduates have found employment with national and international planning agencies and institutes, government departments, local authorities, transportation agencies, planning consultancy firms, and property firms. Graduates have also pursued careers in a range of other areas which utilise the types of skills developed within the degree. These include working with environmental and other NGOs, as animators of local and community development, as GIS consultants, as researchers, as policy advisors and as planning advisors to utility companies, large retailers and transportation companies.

8 UCD School of Geography, Planning and Environmental Policy Master of Regional and Urban Planning Further information Director of the MRUP: Dr. Paula Russell Graduate Administrator: Further information on application process, fees etc., available on: MRUP Graduate Lucy Pyne I feel I have gained a lot as a result of the MRUP. As someone who had never studied planning before, it has taught me what planning is, what its roles are in contemporary society and how it is applied in the real world. I have a better appreciation of the role of policy and politics in everyday decision-making and the impact of economics on the development of cities and regions. In particular, I relished the emphasis that was placed on urban design and as a result I am much more aware of what is around me.
9 Graduate Programmes MSc in Environmental Policy (1 year) Why is this course for me? The environment poses some of the most complex and pressing challenges facing societies and policy-makers across the globe. These challenges range from global concerns (e.g. climate change), to local scale issues (e.g. environmental and citizen quality of life) as policy-makers grapple with building more sustainable and resilient societies, while balancing environmental goals with economic and social objectives. This one year MSc degree is designed to equip students with essential knowledge of environmental processes, and policy and governance frameworks for environmental action, while also developing key professional tools to enable graduates to apply new skills in their future careers.
