Overview
Why to study
The focus of the The Northern and Rural Community Planning degree at the University of Northern British Columbia, is on understanding the relationship between people and the environment, reducing the environmental impact of human activities, and responding and adapting to environmental change.
The study of planning examines public processes that improve the quality of decisions affecting the environment. Responsible planning integrates various private and public interests and identifies viable, workable options. Planners play a vital role in decision-making processes concerning the future of human settlements, resource management, environmental protection, human health and well-being, economic development, and many other areas. Ultimately, the work of planners becomes part of, or a catalyst to, public policy.
