I chose urban planning because it gave me the freedom to explore so many different aspects of urban life in an urban environment. And that's what I was really interested in – people and how they interact with the place.
Dylan Peppernell, Master of Urban Planning
The best thing I got from my University of Melbourne experience was the connections. The academics and staff were amazing, but the people I studied with were too. It was great knowing that these were the people I’d be moving into the workforce with.
