Public urban planning was an essential condition for the enormous increase in living standards and quality of life in many countries, especially in the second half of the 20th century, and today places new demands on the analysis and control of spatial changes. This means that the field of practical work and research tasks are constantly changing.

Urban studies graduates often take jobs as urban planners in public administration, such as urban planning offices and government-level offices. But they are also employed in freelance planning offices, in private companies, social organizations and in political consulting.
