Urban Studies and Planning with Foundation Year

The MPlan Urban Studies and Planning with Foundation Year is a five-year course, professionally accredited by the Royal Town Planning Institute, which leads to an undergraduate Master of Planning (MPlan) qualification.

The foundation year of the programme provides people with non-standard entry qualifications, a thorough and supportive academic preparation for successful degree level study in the School of Geography and Planning.

On successful completion of the foundation year, students will progress to Urban Studies and Planning MPlan.

The foundation year to this degree is carefully designed to build your confidence in your abilities, develop essential academic and study skills, and provide the subject specific knowledge essential for success. You will study with the Lifelong Learning Team in the School of Education, where we have nearly forty years’ experience working with adult learners, helping them to unlock their potential to succeed at degree-level study.
