Hello Saba, Thank you for the message, the PhD is organized / managed via the Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) and will be under University of Manchester.

Re the qualifications: it requires some understanding of spatial analysis and computing and of course your background on urban planning helps. My suggestion is that you reach out to the center [contact page](https://datacdt.org/contact-us/) for specific questions please as well. Hope this helps.
