MA Cities creates city-making practices that foreground social and climate justice. As an art and design college, Central Saint Martins is a place of intense cultural production, generating critical creative practices in complex and conflicting urban settings. Through an enquiry-led approach, MA Cities challenges the conventions of urban development, regeneration, and place-making and provides a platform for generating and implementing innovative forms of civic practice.
MA Cities confronts the pressing social, ethical and environmental concerns of the city and explore the value and agency of alternative practices from around the world. Students will navigate complex and dynamic scenarios using creativity and originality to address current and future city-making challenges.

The course engages in collaboration and knowledge exchange with a wide range of art, design, and architectural practices, external partners and organisations. Students will be immersed in professional contexts of public sector and urban practice through direct engagement with local governments, regeneration agencies, creative and spatial practitioners. The course also works in collaboration with world-wide partners, to ensure that the course is informed by leading international perspectives and becomes a platform for transnational exchange and expertise in creative city-making.
