IELTS 6.0 with no skill below 5.5
This course allows you to study a range of contemporary themes within human geography, including globalisation, sustainability, identity and the diversity of human living, at the same time as learning about the role that planning plays in helping to shape our cities and towns and make them better places for us to live.
You will engage with live projects through a wide range of field trips, from half-day site visits in Leeds to week-long international field trips, giving you the opportunity to apply your classroom learning in the real world. You will also be entitled to free student membership of the Royal Town Planning Institute.
