University of Calgary Environmental Design – Advanced Professional Planning Studio
January-April, 2018

Click Here to access the application!

In this community partnership process senior students and instructors from the Master of Planning at the Faculty of Environmental Design in the University of Calgary work on a variety of planning issues in consultation with selected community associations related to both short term problem solving and long term visioning of community enrichment opportunities. The focus is on physical planning and urban design of the built environment and how changes to density, land use, transportation, green space, local services and streetscapes can affect positive changes at a neighborhood scale. There is a strong community consultation process involved in developing studio projects, and final presentations, reports and design products are produced for the communities involved. Contact Ben at planning@calgarycommunities.com if you have any questions! This option may be of interest to communities who have previously completed the Urban Studies visioning project and are interested in a focused follow-up on specific topics or issues.

The application for the Professional Planning Practice Studio will remain open until September 30th, however, if your community is unable to make the deadline, we would be happy to make accommodations.
