About

The Department of Urban and Regional Planning was established in 1962 under the Faculty of Architecture and Planning, with a Master's Degree in URP. The academic session, however, began with the return of three trained teachers from abroad with eight graduate students in 1968. The first batch of seven planners graduated in 1972. With a short gap between 1973 and 1976, the department kept on educating graduate planners without interruption and produced a total of 136 planners till 1996. With the growing requirements of Governmental and Non-Governmental organizations as well as Universities and research institutes, the Bachelor's (BURP) and Ph.D. programs have been introduced in 1996.
