Graduate Certificate in Property and Planning

This course provides a unique environment for planners and property developers to develop a mutual understanding of how to balance private and public interests in urban development. It has a strong focus on sustainable urban development.

The Graduate Certificate in Property and Planning is a foundation course for students who go on to study the Master of Planning (C04007) or the Master of Property Development (C04008). Both disciplines require close cooperation and this course shows students how to achieve better urban outcomes through closer partnerships between those building cities and those planning them.
