Education is the most fundamental process for maintaining awareness and maintaining the quality and quantity of society's knowledge, and the educational content of each discipline is the key to achieving it. This process, due to the rapid changes in the fields of urban knowledge and in parallel with the changes in urban conditions and problems and their complexity, has increased the expectations of the Master's course in urban planning. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the degree of adaptability of the educational content of the master's course in urban planning with the content of the urban planning engineer service system in the form of professional needs of engineers and urban managers. The methodology of this research is descriptive-analytical and uses quantitative and survey content analysis methods. The method of data collection is library and questionnaire. The findings of the research show that the components of "Urban Land Use Adaptation Plan" and "Land Preparation Plans" have received the most attention and the "Design and Supervision of Construction Groups" component has received the least attention in compulsory and optional courses. The results show that the current teaching content of the master's course in urban planning does not properly establish the two-way communication between the profession and the discipline within the framework of the targeted educational content and in accordance with the realities and professional needs of engineers and urban managers. This low correlation is due to the small overlap of the content of some analytical courses (mandatory and optional) with the percentage of the components and categories related to the service system of urban engineers, which has been revised in order to be more adaptable to the professional needs of engineers and urban managers. In the educational content of the course or change in the type and number of hours of the main course is necessary.
