Town and Regional Planning MPlan

The Town and Regional Planning MPlan programme is designed for those who wish to pursue a professional career in urban, regional and environmental planning in the UK or abroad. The programme enables students to complete the Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI) recognised requirement. In addition to the studies in common with the other planning programmes offered, MPlan students develop their own interests further through the choice of a specialism, gain a valuable understanding of professional planning practice in the UK and internationally, and complete a dissertation.

This programme is accredited by the Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI) for the purpose of fully meeting the educational requirements for Chartered Membership.

This programme is available with either a Year in China or a Year Abroad. The Year in China offers undergraduate students the opportunity to spend one year at our joint venture, Xian Jiaotong-Liverpool University (XJTLU), following XJTLUs BA China Studies degree classes. XJTLU is a fully English-speaking university, located in Suzhou. The Year Abroad offers students the opportunity to spend a full academic year studying at one of our partner universities around the world, following a mixture of culture and/or discipline-related modules. If you wish to study this programme with a Year in China or a Year Abroad you will have the opportunity to apply after you arrive at Liverpool.
