The course at Oxford Brookes UniversityÊreflects the requirement for planners to recognise the pressures for development while also examining the way surveyors and property developers need to understand the planning system and the social, environmental and political climates in which they work.

Oxford is a fascinating place to study major issues facing the development industry. It poses a tremendous challenge as it strives to develop as a 21st-century city without losing its historic heart.
