The program is designed to provide an international perspective on critical issues, including architecture, infrastructure design, urban design, and placemaking. Participants will undertake walking tours of significant recent developments, visit select heritage areas, and engage in interactive discussions with leading urban practitioners based in London.

The curriculum is structured around seven thematic explorations of London: London Growing East, London Growing West, The City as an Economic Powerhouse, Cultural River Front, The City Fringe in Transition, Integrated Infrastructure, and Learning and Memory.

The program will be anchored by Steven Smith, Architect & Urbanist and Director of Urbannarrative, alongside A. Srivathsan, Urban Designer and Architectural Scholar and Head of the Centre for Research in Architecture and Urbanism at CEPT’s CRDF.

Participants will receive a Certificate from CEPT University upon completion. The program fee is INR 90,000 + GST, with an early bird discount of INR 6,000 available for applications submitted by 16 April 2026, and an equivalent alumni discount for CEPT graduates. As the program involves international travel, CPP encourages early applications to allow sufficient time for visa processing and will provide support letters for the same.

The last date to apply is 7 May 2026.

To capture Sen’s essence, Karim draws on three powerful metaphors: a mountain (commanding yet silent), a banyan tree (generous and sheltering), and a river (unseen yet ever-present). Together, these images paint a portrait of a man whose quiet depth left an indelible mark on all who encountered him.
