Greetings!  Are you an Urban Planning student in Heriot-Watt, or simply interested in the process of developing cities and communities for future generations?  Does your understanding of how places around the world grow, thrive, and develop come from an academic background such as urban planning, spatial planning, urban design, or geography, through the likes of Cities Skylines, SimCity, or Cities in Motion, or a mixture of both?  Do you enjoy exploring the connections between the various cultures, infrastructure, ecosystems, and histories within a city and using those to anticipate and plan for the future?  Then this society may be just for you!

The Urban Planning Society seeks to link together the various students and enthusiasts in Heriot-Watt through our mutual interest in the growth of cities and communities, to help draw attention to key issues related to and within our field, and to share our appreciation on the subject with the rest of the University through projects and exhibitions within the campus.  We're open to all people, regardless of subject or course: architecture, geography, engineering, real estate, biology, you name it!

If you are interested in urban planning and all of its related areas of expertise such as spatial planning, placemaking, geography, transport, and urban design, then please join us!  As of now, we're planning on hosting socials and AGMs for fellow members to get to know each other, but we're also thinking of possibly hosting bigger events such as inviting guest lecturers or even launching competitions related to urban planning with cash prizes!

Thanks for reading through our page, and we hope to see you soon!
