The delineation of Metropolitan Areas, scope and content of their plans the governance structure and their functional domains vary considerably in India. As far as regional plans are concerned, they have been largely extension of urban plans both in terms of processes and contents and have not been very effective.

The studio is developed in three modules that deal with the most pertinent issues related to planning for metropolitan areas. Cases will be used as teaching method will be used wherever appropriate, to discuss concepts, approaches and methods leading to key questions for the students to reflect upon..
