About the course

Urban and regional planners develop strategies and design communities in which we all live, work and play. Planning helps balance community, environmental and economic needs, while recognising cultural significance in order to improve our quality of life and create sustainable and vital communities. Our Bachelor of Urban and Regional Planning provides you with the necessary knowledge and skills to critically analyse and solve complex problems — skills that help you adapt as a professional in a changing world.

　　Our course offers a balance of theory and practice — we focus on you being able to integrate your academic knowledge into the real world. You will gain the knowledge and skills that planners need to solve a wide range of important social and environmental issues. You will learn to think critically to analyse competing priorities, to solve complex problems, to strategise, and to communicate effectively as a planning professional with a wide range of audiences. UNE’s Bachelor of Urban and Regional Planning includes hands-on, industry-based work experience. You will get a broad, thorough understanding of design and planning in urban and regional contexts, across a range of major areas: land use, social and economic issues, transport, professionalism and ethics, environmental and planning law. The skills you will learn are valued and transferable across many professional contexts, in both the public and private sectors. With these skills you will be boosting your fitness for your future career, while also working towards a more liveable, more sustainable world and helping communities work and thrive. Our Bachelor of Urban and Regional Planning is fully accredited with the Planning Institute of Australia.
