It seeks to understand the complex ways in which places and spaces are produced, governed and experienced in urban and rural contexts, and in relation to the built and natural environments.

The School runs undergraduate courses in both planning and human geography that provide a stimulating educational experience. While geography provides the theoretical and analytical skills to understand both the nature of change and its impacts, planning translates this understanding into action.
