IIHS Urban Fellows Programme
Enabling India's Urban Transformation
India’s urban transition is unprecedented in scale and complexity. Within it lie both, the opportunities of economic development and greater employment as well as the challenges of persistent inequality, extreme deprivation and environmental degradation. The UFP offers the chance to be a part of shaping this transition.
UFP is scholarship-based, nine-month, full-time, residential, interdisciplinary and based at the IIHS City Campus in Bengaluru. It combines classroom teaching, site-based applied learning, work in live projects, and external internships to introduce Fellows to diverse forms of urban practice. The Programme is open to recent graduates and young professionals from varied educational backgrounds or practice domains. The ninth batch of UFP has commenced in August 2024.

Learning by doing
The IIHS Core curriculum is a set of learning experiences, interactions and credit courses, grounded in experiential, local and traditional knowledge.
These help build a set of capacities and sensibilities in the learner, that help them take responsibility for their own personal as well as professional development beyond the classroom.
