PrefaceRevisionof theModelCurriculumofMasterofPlanningwas longoverdue forvariousreasons. First, over a decade has passed since the first model curriculum for anundergraduate programme in planningwas prepared.Minor revisions howeverwereundertaken in 2012. Asking relevant experts to prepare syllabus of each subject, theInstituteofTownPlanners’Indiaplayedapivotalroleinthepreparationofthepreviousmodelcurriculum,whichwasusedbyseveralplanningschoolstokickstarttheirownMasterofplanningprogrammes.Second,majoreconomicandtechnologicalchangesinthesocietyhavetakenplacesincethepreviousrevisionofthemodelcurriculum.Third,Governmentof Indiahasgivenabigpush tobroadbaseurbanandregionalplanning.Additionally,therehasbeenaconstantdemandfromtheprivateacademicinstitutionstorevisethemodelcurriculuminlinewiththeprevailingsocial,economicandtechnologicaltransformations.NewModelCurriculum forMasterofPlanningprogrammeobviouslyhas severalnewfeaturesinlinewithchangingpedagogicaladvancements.Forexample,eachsubject iswritteninastandardformatcreatedbytheAICTE,startingwithcourseobjectives;coursecontentdivideduniformlyintofourunitsforeachsubject;uptodaterelevanttextsandreferences;andlastly,courseoutcomesi.e.whatstudentsareexpectedtolearnfromeachcourse.Newauditcoursesarealsoaddedwithzerocredits.Auditcoursesareexpectedtocreateroundedpersonalitiesofprofessionalplanners.Moreemphasisonprofessionalandopenelectiveshasbeenplacedinthismodelcurriculum,aimedatofferingstudentscomparativelybetterchoices.Onlyoneopenelectiveisofferedineachsemesterstartinginthefourthsemesterbecause,inplanningschools,openelectivesareroutinelyofferedbyotherdepartmentsofstudies.ACommitteewassetupbytheAllIndiaBoardofTownandCountryPlanning(AIB-TCP)forthepreparationofthenewModelCurriculumforBachelorofPlanningandMasterofPlanninginlate2018.MembersoftheCommitteeincludedthefollowingdistinguishedacademics:ProfessorAshokKumar - Chairman SPA,NewDelhiProfessorN.Sridharan - Member SPA,BhopalProfessorUtpalSharma - Member NirmaUniversity,AhmedabadDr.DebjaniGhosh - Member NIUA,NewDelhiThe first meeting of the Committee was held on 13 December 2018 at the AICTEheadquartersinDelhiinwhichthebasicstructureofthemodelcurriculawasdecided.Itwas decided that the basic structure of both undergraduate and postgraduateprogrammes would include core courses, studios, thesis, training opportunities, andprofessional and open electives. It was further decided that training would bemadecompulsory,marked, supervised and of a comparatively longer time duration. Itwasfurtherdecidedthatstudiosandstudiorelatedfieldtripswouldbemadecompulsoryanddurationofthefieldtripsshouldrangefrom10to15days.Furthermore, we decided that newmodel curriculum preparation exercise would becarried out through a consultative processwith relevant stakeholders. In this vein ofthinking,wefoundanopportunemomentintheITPICongress,whichwasheldfrom4to

5January2019inChandigarh.Aworkshopwiththestakeholders–largelyprofessionalplanners–washeldon5 January2019 inChandigarhanda litanyofsuggestionsandrecommendationswasmade, several ofwhich have been included in the newmodelcurriculumofbothcourses.ThedelegatessuggestedthatthenewsubjectssuchasPublicPolicy, Public Finance, Urban and Regional Governance, Climate change, New UrbanAgenda, and SDGs, Project Evaluation, Urban Agriculture, Village Planning, and RuralDevelopmentshouldbeintroduced.TheyalsosuggestedthatstudentsshouldbetaughtmappingtechnologieslikeGIS,andshouldhavegoodunderstandingof‘datascience’suchas‘UrbanScience’.Itwasalsosuggestedthatalongertimeperiodshouldbeallocatedforprofessional training. They argued that students should have deeper knowledge ofmattersrelatedtoland,andreadingofrevenuerecords,landprocurement,developmentand management. Equally important are matters pertaining to equity and justicealongside understanding of markets. Delegates at the Congress also suggested thatstudentsshouldlearnabouttheenergyneedsofourcitiesandtowns.TheCommitteealsoexaminedthesyllabiofSPABhopalandSPANewDelhialongsidetheexistingModelCurriculumofAICTEpreparedin2008withminorrevisionsin2012.Wefound that Bhopal has followed the same syllabus as the AICTE 2012.

• Tocriticallyunderstandeconomic,political, cultural, socialandother forcesshapingbuiltenvironmentsinhistory.

• To examine the significance of histories as they inform the present planning ofsettlements.

AsfarasPlanningTheoryisconcerned,thechiefgoalisnottoreplaceconventionaltheorieswith non-conventional ones, but identify under what conditions any set of theoreticalpropositions hold. Hence, identifying conditions which determine development andplanningoutcomesiscrucial.Oneassumptionthatunderliesthispedagogicalapproachisthat it encourages unconventional thinking, and reflection in action—and not planningprescriptions based on pre-conceived ideas. Following are the course objectives ofPlanningTheory:

• To learn to have a general, and substantive command of the spectrum of past andpresentperspectivesregardingplanningtheory.
