About us

The International Planning Studies (IPS) research group deals with urban change, planning, and governance, as well as mobilities, infrastructure, and housing from a global perspective.

Our teaching and research engage in co-creative and reflexive knowledge production ranging from critical and postcolonial perspectives to applied approaches. We offer courses in B.Sc. Spatial Planning, M.Sc. Spatial Planning and the international master program M.Sc. SPRING at the Department of Spatial Planning. IPS also offers to supervise PhD projects and organizes courses and exchange events for doctoral students.
