Are you interested in climate proofing cities or in making cities climate-neutral? This Master's specialisation prepares students for working on the nexus between urban planning, water and environmental management.

Cities, Water and Climate Change: Something for you?

• You will develop governance strategies for climate proofing cities and for reducing urban carbon emissions.
• You will develop strategies for flood risk management in delta areas.
• You are trained to think outside given boxes, by combining well-established core courses with electives.
• Small, almost 'family-like' department that covers a broad range of topics with a strong track record in related research.

What will you learn?

The Master's specialisation in Cities, Water and Climate Change discusses the relationship between city planning and development, climate mitigation and adaptation. Cities, because of high levels of energy consumption and mobility, are the main contributors to climate change. At the same time, cities, because of their population density, are most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. This Master's specialisation prepares students for working on the nexus between urban planning, water and environmental management.
