Career paths

Professionals with good urban design knowledge and skills are highly sought after by private consulting firms, development organisations, and local and state governments, where they are required to prepare and evaluate urban design policies, strategies, frameworks, guidelines, concepts, master plans and programs, and be involved in the more detailed design and management of urban spaces.

Urban designers are crucial for solid development evaluation, and to enhance perspectives on urban conservation and transformation. There is also a small but growing demand for urban design educators and media commentators.
