Join our last group of master’s students seminar titled: “How Technology Supports Inclusive and Effective Planning” on December 8, 2025, at the planning studio on the third floor of the Richard Murray Design Building at 10 a.m.

The seminar will explore how emerging technologies such as AI automation and digital engagement platforms are reshaping inclusive planning practices. This seminar promises timely insights and practical inspiration for our constantly evolving profession. It will feature presentations from diverse professionals (planning and technology-related fields) as well as an interactive panel discussion designed to spark questioning and answering.

This seminar presents an excellent opportunity to gain valuable insights into how technology enhances inclusivity, strengthens community engagement, and makes planning processes more effective and equitable for emerging planners.
