MASTER IN PLANNING (INFRASTRUCTURE) (Under Credit Based Continuous Evaluation Grading System)

Mission Statement for M. Tech. (UP)/ Master in Planning (Infrastructure) Courses

Spatial planning is a multi-disciplinary discipline requiring inputs from architecture,

engineering, geography, economics, sociology and other areas of livability concerns.

A Post-Graduation course in Urban Planning / Infrastructure synthesizes these inputs into an

integrated plan of action for shaping the human settlements to make them habitable as per

desirable quality of life standards in urban areas keeping into account the plausible

constraints. During the programmes, the students are equipped with knowledge of basic

theories, techniques, and design concepts to assume their assigned professional roles as

members of multi-disciplinary teams which involve survey, analysis and plan making for an

urban/regional areas. Adequate emphasis is given to practicals / labs where the students will

have opportunity to learn by doing. The two years degree programmes are designed to

prepare students in the skills of analyzing the physical, social, cultural, economic and

ecological dimensions of urban settlements, comprehending their problems, and evolving

measures to tackle them in a planned manner. The programmes include studio exercises in

plan preparation through live case studies related to comprehensive and micro level

urban/regional development issues, and problems related to various cities and towns in the

country. The curriculum of M. Tech (Urban Planning)/Master in Planning (Infrastructure)

helps students to develop basic skills to serve various planning, development and

management agencies in different professional capacities in the public sector as well as in

private consultancy organizations later in their careers.
