is urban design good choice for future?
Hello aayushi, hope you are doing well!
Firstly no field is bad if you have interest in it. And here I will tell you all about urban design and it's scope in India. If you want to go ahead with urban designing, you will be getting jobs like urban planner, urban designer, etc. Honestly, this field is not well developed in India. It's is like it in a nascent stage. This field is much defined in USA, Europe, Hongkong, etc. The salary in this field is an average of 37,940 per month. For being placed well in future, bachelor's degree is not enough. It is recommended to have a master's degree as well. Course for the degree of urban design includes subjects like industrial design, animation software, sociology and history in architecture.
Hope this was helpful, feel free to ask more!
