Career

With a Master’s degree in Human Geography or Urban and Regional Planning, you'll be equipped for your future career as a geographer or urban planner, with excellent national and international career opportunities. Possibilities include public service, the corporate sector, and non-profit organisations. The Spatial Sustainability Studies track, in particular, gives you the tools to approach sustainability and justice challenges in an integrative manner and to make the connection between analysis and intervention.
