Many students choose to begin their higher education by pursuing a bachelor’s degree. This level of study emphasizes skills and knowledge relevant to entry level careers. After graduation, you can choose to either start your career or continue your studies by earning a graduate degree.

What is a BA in Urban and Regional Planning? Graduates will be prepared to start working toward a career in city planning. While studying, courses in the history of development; dynamics of metropolitan, urban, and industrial development; analytical methods, plan implementation; management; and development theory are usually required. It is common for professionals to focus on one aspect, such as transportation, utilities, community development, or economics, so you may want to specialize in one of these fields while studying.

Urban and regional development are often very fulfilling careers. Professionals have the opportunity to directly influence thousands of people's lives every day and establish communities. The impact they have on the world is substantial.

Tuition and fees for enrolling in a bachelor’s program can vary. The program, school, and country will all affect how much you should expect to pay. It can be very beneficial to research several different options before enrolling to find a program that matches your budget. Contact the admissions offices of any schools you’re considering to learn current information regarding scholarships, tuition, and fees.

After graduation, you may be qualified to start pursuing a career in city planning or one of the subcategories. There are numerous options for careers. Work is often available in urban, regional, and industrial planning and development; transportation and environmental planning; coastal management; land use; and economic development. If none of those areas interest you, you can choose to enter research or educational career paths.

If you are passionate about making the world a better place around you, studying urban and regional planning may be for you. Interested students should start with a search for your program below and contact directly the admission office of the school of your choice by filling in the lead form.
