From neighbourhoods to towns and whole cities, urban areas around the world go through cycles of growth and decline, making the need for urban regeneration inevitable. There is growing demand for professionals with the expertise to lead regeneration and urban transformation projects. This MSc addresses the challenges of rejuvenating or restructuring declining areas in response to changes to the functioning of contemporary urban environments. We place social value at the heart of urban regeneration, critically exploring how to deliver urban transformations that benefit existing communities while maximising those places’ strengths and opportunities.
During your degree, you will:
- Use case studies from different places across the world to explore how, and to what extent, the governance, planning, design, and management of the built environment can help to regenerate areas identified as places in decline.
- Acquire the latest knowledge of the social, economic, environmental, and design issues involved in regenerating urban areas.
- Acquire key concepts and tools to deliver regeneration projects, such as community engagement, procurement processes, evaluation of projects, and real estate dynamics.
- Explore real-world projects engaging with multi-disciplinary case studies of urban regeneration schemes.
- Experience urban regeneration projects and challenges in situ through a residential field trip and sites visits.
- Gain experience delivering urban regeneration projects by diagnosing challenges in London localities and international contexts, and developing policy or intervention proposals in multidisciplinary student teams.
- Explore your own interests, choosing elective modules from across UCL and our faculty.
