Vision and Mission

Subsequent accelerating growth rates in modern cities emphasized the need for integrated action plans for vernacular and future urbanism and urged the need to provide essential remedies for inherited problems. Some cities in Jordan are historical settlements dating back to prehistory, and others are emergent settlements reflecting the need to dwell in certain localities. However, most of these cities developed by contiguous cellular growth with little planning. These facts inflicted the quality of life in cities of the region as well.

Our mission is to provide the society with professional planners who will develop the urban environment of this region of the world. The department takes on its responsibilities by equipping students with skills, and hands-on experiences to critically develop and promote their creativity and future career knowledge. This mission is carried out by a team of expertise that are educated and furnished to create the change to enhance life and equity in modern cities.
