- This installment of What’s UP? features Associate Professor of Virginia Tech’s Urban Affairs and Planning Department located in VT's Arlington campus, Dr. Ralph Buehler. His research and teaching interests take on an international comparative perspective, contrasting transport and land-use policies, transport systems, and travel behavior in Western Europe and North America.
What’s UP? is Virginia Tech's Master of Urban Planning's (VTMURP) new campaign to get the word out about Urban Planning. Through a video series of brief interviews, we hope to delineate what Urban Planning as a field of study is all about. We will be talking to students, alumni, faculty, and planning professionals to ask them “What’s UP?”

In Australia, urban planning is marketed to students as a creative, wide realm, worldly and fun course akin to sim city where you can change cities and use your wild imagination on subjective social ideas. In reality urban planning in Australia is a lot different. Its a statutory micro managed world full of spreadsheets and "cog in the wheel" decisions. It really is nothing like the courses they market. And that is the great sadness of it all really. People enter the field with high hopes and visions and realize quickly that it is just to process applications and stamp plans with no creative input at all. I would recommend all students to first ask "how does this course relate the reality of the job?" before wasting their time and their money. Property development in Australia and real estate form the bulk of the highest purchasing among our population. The town planner is often seen as an obstacle and the main thing people want from you, the only thing is just to process forms and letters quickly. That is all people actually want from your role. They don't want your creativity, your ideas etc etc. I really think it all boils down to keeping a false economy going and the town planning profession suffering just to keep its own existence and relevance in the scheme of things (from my own experience!)
that also goes for many many many degrees and majors. law being the first one that comes to mind. universities need to hit students in the face with reality and not sugarcoat things for their own monetary gain.
Thank u this is so upsetting to hear 😢
Wish this video was around when I was contemplating studying urban planning - thanks for sharing your story!
Loved this! Thankyou
This is a brilliant explanation!!
Hi sir,i just completed my post graduation in geography...Is there any opportunity to do a PG diploma course in urban planning preferably in foreign university
ok but do I need to study GIS too?
I'm really wondering whether urban planning is considered more a political & technical field or a design one
It has a little bit of all those fields and more... this is why a planning team must be interdisciplinary
It's to political and technical then design of course they will teach you how to design plans for cities by using informatique systems this in my country but I don't know for others countries
@@hajarkhazafi6705 can you maybe explain to me what an landscape architect does that an urban planner doesn’t do and vice versa? Kind regards
@@juliaz9843 I know urban planning more than landscape architect, urban planner are the ones how said where to put an equipment or residential area, he also determine where to build and where not he works with government different than architect landscape how is more in designing how for example the park looks like or the equipment looks like ....I hope this helps you ...
a combination of all of the above.
I did Economics and Statistics, can I be allowed to pursue a graduate school in Urban Planning
