3 Part time MSc Programs in Architecture Studies in Belgium for 2024

Cities and settlements are under extreme pressure. Social and environmental inequity is sharply on the rise. Urbanism, spatial planning, and intervention in landscape systems are in urgent need of renewed approaches. New strategies must be developed to not only tackle social exclusion, unequal distribution of resources, and spatial contradictions but also be inspired by the multiple and (trans)cultural expressions of worldwide urbanisms. KU Leuven's Advanced Master of Urbanism, Landscape and Planning focuses on multi-faceted and -scalar issues of contemporary urban development.

In an era of rapid change, space is an increasingly limited resource. The Master of Human Settlements addresses rapid urbanisation and contemporary urban transformations. Our intensive programme examines the multi-faceted challenges facing contemporary human settlements worldwide while helping you develop a critical and interpretative approach toward your own position within the field.

This advanced master programme is an intensive international and interdisciplinary experience. The programme is ideal for students fascinated by conservation and restoration techniques in the field of built heritage preservation. It is taught at the beautiful Arenberg Castle in the historic city of Leuven. The renowned Raymond Lemaire International Centre for Conservation (RLICC), established in 1976, focuses on interdisciplinary collaboration and intercultural dialogue both in an education and research environment.
