Reasons from I*****************************
My interest to pursue a Master in Urban and Rural Planning is driven by passion and aspiration to attain an advance qualification. You will note that I hold a Bachelor of Arts (Hon) in Urban Planning and Design which provided a foundation for an advanced qualification. Urban and Rural Planning is key for the achievement of the Vision 2030, however no local University has a track record of offering this programme, resulting in limited availability of local expertise. Beijing Jiaotong University have a good track record in research and skills development. Beijing Jiaotong University have Diversity of students, Global Academic Recognition.
