The complexity of a city, its history, its evolution, implies the complexity of Urban Planning, a concept that was originally focused more on the form and geographic disposition in an approach more towards the architectural than towards the social nuance, in which the dynamics of the economic, environmental and social activities that are developed in it must be considered. Nowadays, Urban Planning is related to sciences such as Architecture, Civil Engineering, Geography, Sociology, History, Political Science, so knowing everything about it is necessary for the professional who is related to any of these disciplines. This is how this program specialized in Urban Planning was created, taught through an innovative methodology based on Relearning, with a completely online system and the most advanced technology in today's university environment.

Urbanism arose as a result of the foundation of cities by the Romans during the time of the empire. The Romans took a city model and then implemented it in each region they conquered. A model in which there was always room for a public square and where streets had to be laid out in neatly aligned squares. Later, this type of city would spread throughout Europe, until it reached America.

An Urban Design includes Technical, Economic, Social, Political, Legal and Environmental Elements, which will be responsible for defining the City Project.
