Overview
Module aims and purpose
This module covers the economic principles underlying urban and rural economics, planning, and real estate聽commercial and residential markets.
The module aims to build a solid foundation in the economics of property markets to provide an insight into the application of economic principles and models to land use, city growth, urban and rural development , planning policy and the property market.
Module learning outcomes
By the end of the module, it is expected that students will be able to:
- Evaluate critically the main economic concepts and models relating to the economics of property and land in both urban and rural contexts;
- Demonstrate a systematic understanding of the influence of economic conditions and publicplanning policy on the property sector;
- Demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of the principal determinants of the demand for, the supply of, and the characteristics of commercial and residential property;
- Apply economic theory to evaluate current economic conditions and assess the principal implications for urban and rural development and the property market.
Additional outcomes:聽
The module will assist students in developing a critical awareness of economic conditions and their significance foron business decisions and outcomes. It聽will enhance students' quantitative, analytical, and practical skills, and contribute to the qualities and transferable skills necessary for employment.
Module content
The lectures develop聽the fundamental principles of micro-economics and how to apply micro-economic principles to examine real estate market behaviour, urban land patterns, the shape of cities, and relevant planning policy, as well as setting up the foundational understanding required to apply economic theory in real estate markets.
It does so through engagement with the following topics:
- Agglomeration and urban structure
- Micro economies of land use
- Economics of town planning
- Rural economies
- The real property market and economic analysis
- Economic analysis of commercial and residential markets
- Housing economics and housing policy
Structure
Teaching and learning methods
The module will be primarily lecture-based with directed supplementary questions and reading. The directed reading will consist both of academic material on the theoretical concepts/models relating to the lectures and policy/practice material relating to contemporary market, economic and political conditions. Students are expected to work with real estate data on case studies in different property markets and participate in in-class discussion. Furthermore, students are expected to complete the practical exercises after each major topic area coverede. At the end of the module students are expected to undertake a major application of this material via a project report,聽which acts as a consolidating and integrating vehicle for the taught content and reading.

At least 30 hours of scheduled teaching and learning activities will be delivered in person, with the remaining hours for scheduled and self-scheduled teaching and learning activities delivered either in person or online.
