The Graduate Diploma in Urban Design provides a focused year of urban design history, theory, implementation strategy and studio based learning. The Graduate Diploma builds on the Graduate Certificate and offers students experience as individual designers and as participants in interdisciplinary groups assigned to working on the complex nature of urban design issues. The Graduate Diploma also offers students preliminary experience in conducting independent research. Students graduating with a Diploma will have a working knowledge of urban design. Their degree of experience would qualify them to participate in interdisciplinary professional teams involved in the production of urban design in a professional context.
