MA Urban Design
This course is designed for architects, landscape architects, environmental designers and strategic planners who want to be involved in designing the cities of the future.
Design projects will address live briefs at a range of scales, from the strategic to the site-specific. Themes include the public realm, green and blue infrastructures, resilient and adaptive city strategies, growth and transformation through time, climate change, biodiversity, and zones of transition.
Through critical case studies, and your final MA project, you will be able to tailor this course to your interests so you can study chosen areas in greater depth.
You will be taught by research active staff who are in touch with the latest thinking and bring best practice to your studies. In addition, you will have the opportunity to work on collaborations with industry both nationally and internationally. Examples include the following:
Kingston's excellent reputation means that industry leaders regularly visit student shows to see the best of new talent.
