The flexible programme is suitable for those working in housing (part-time or full-time) who wish to develop their career; those new to the sector and who wish to enhance their skill set; and those interested in developing their knowledge of applied public policy and who are interested in further study by research.
In addition to a set of core housing studies courses, you have the opportunity to select from a range of additional specialist courses in international housing policy; comparative UK housing policy, housing and sociology; the private rented sector; urban design policy and urban conservation.
You will be part of a world-class, research driven community of scholars who are passionate and enthusiastic about housing.
Our teaching staff are innovative in their award-winning approach to teaching and learning. In addition, you can expect to learn from experienced housing professionals in the private and public sectors who also teach on the programme.
Through our link with the internationally acclaimed UK Centre for Collaborative Housing Evidence (CaCHE), you will benefit from teaching by CaCHE researchers, who are at the cutting edge of research into post-pandemic housing policies, housing markets and governance, affordability, housing finance and homelessness.
The programme is delivered face-to-face on campus but makes use of blended learning technologies to support learners not able to make it on to campus every week due to professional or caring responsibilities. Learning takes place in lectures, workshops, seminars and on field trips.
