Short Glimpse of my journey
Abdullah MohammedAlshahrani – urban planner & design

If someone asks me to describe what I want to achieve and
what I can do as an urban planner & design, responsible for
developing cities and towns with focusing on sustainability and
regeneration. I am able to create projects which balance aspects such
as industrial development, recreation, housing, transportation,
agriculture, and environment. Essential work duties of an Urban
Planner include: developing planning solutions, collaborating with
architects and surveyors, attending and meting public inquiries,
studying populations, analyzing surveys, preparing reports, planning
transportation systems, discussing with government officials and
supporting their proposals in front of legislative committees, I aim to
achieve simply “an integrated society”.
I am a fresh graduate planning engineer (SECOND HONORS
WITH 4.34 GPA, URBAN AND REGIONAL PLANNING). During my
academic career, I managed to accrue nearly 6 months of work
experience. I had the privilege of working for Saudi Aramco in my
summer training, where I have learned a valuable professional skills
such as design methods, quality assurances, project planning, and
project management and control. In both academic and professional
life, I have been consistently praised as efficient by my professors and
mentors. Whether working on academic and professional projects. By
applying proven problem-solving, management, and planning skills.
Currently, I am looking for a job opportunities in order to learn
and contribute in the best way possible. I am an enthusiastic and
curious person with experience in development studies, Urban
Planning, Transport Planning and urban design. I am still young but I
am very open to execute different ways of working which I am sure I
will be having a valuable experience by working with your team. I have
attached a CV and brief journey of my experiences in this field hoping
this will give a good idea of my skills and abilities. I want to illustrate
the fact that my academic and professional goals are very much
inclined in creating an integrated Society which is what I plan to learn
and practice and hence with this opportunity.

MAIN ISSUE
Taif city needs to expand the economic
base and activate the comprehensive
tourism role, due to several reasons
including the weakness and lack of
diversity in tourism and the limited
period of visit to tourists and therefore
we decided to plan a new city belonging

tourism, a function on which the
economic base of the city will depend. It
depends on a variety of areas and
tourist activities, which provides a
variety of job opportunities and is
considered one of the strongest reasons
for attracting residents.
FUTURE VISION OF TOURISM
The vision of the Kingdom of Saudi
Arabia seeks to develop a national
tourism value and distinctive with
economic, social, cultural,
environmental and recreational benefits
and to increase household spending in
tourism.
The Government is moving towards
supporting the promising sectors and
striving for their success to be
supportive of our economy in the field of
tourism.

obtained from manual digitization and
scanning of aerial photographs, paper
maps, and existing digital data sets.
Database Management and Update
data security, data integrity, and data
storage and retrieval, and data
maintenance abilities
Geographic Analysis The collected
information is analyzed and interpreted
