Professional Development Programs

"The skills gained through the Masters degree have provided the critical tools for me to do my work. Previously I had been involved in a number of master planning projects, but having undertaken the rigours of focused study at Masters level, I was surprised by what I was able to gain in terms of knowledge – particularly the inputs from a wide source of knowledge from other professions. This input is often what provides the critical drivers for urban design projects.
In studying for the Masters, I valued the diversity of the subject matter, the opportunity to work in a more scholarly manner, and being able to think through current theoretical positions and how they can be applied practically."
