Town Planning
Urban sprawl and informal settlements challenge Indian cities. With new townships, metro projects, and smart zones emerging, there’s a gap in spatial planning, zoning, land-use analytics, and public engagement—requiring trained town planners for inclusive and data-driven development.
Emerging technologies like GIS, smart infrastructure, and data-driven governance are transforming town planning. Innovation is driving sustainable urban solutions, improving service delivery, and enabling resilient city design—creating demand for professionals skilled in modern, tech-integrated planning approaches.
India faces a shortage of skilled urban planners equipped with digital, environmental, and participatory planning expertise. With rapid urbanization and smart city expansion, there's a growing market gap for professionals who can bridge policy, technology, and community needs.
