The Leverhulme unit for the design of cities of the future (LUDeC) is a transdisciplinary doctoral programme. It encourages its scholars to reach out across disciplines, for artists to work with sociologists, historians to work with designers and literary scholars to work with geographers. It embraces urban design as a co-creative process. The programme encourages cross-disciplinary conversations, projects, and creative methods centred on rethinking the contemporary city. On our website you can find information about all of our fifteen doctoral scholars, all at different stages of the programme, updates on our upcoming events, and excerpts of projects on our blog. Please do contact any of our scholars if you would like to find out more about what they do, and if you would like to work with us.
