Cities are more relevant than ever. They play an increasingly important role in the issues of this time: climate change, inequality, safety and health. Our Urban Studies programme gives you the opportunity to become a problem solver, teaching you how to develop real-life answers to today’s and tomorrow’s urban challenges.

In 2050, around 70% of the world population is expected to live in urban centres, while at the moment, cities already are home to 55%. This offers a vast number of social and economic opportunities. But at the same time, the challenges of urban growth are daunting. As a student of our Urban Studies programme, you will develop the academic and practical skills needed to deal with the challenges of urban life.
