You’ll develop applied research and analysis skills through drafting in studio practice, consult in teams, travel on week- long field trips and can choose to pursue an international exchange program. Upon graduation, you’ll understand communities’ needs, structures and rules, and be ready to advise on planning decisions related to social, economic, environmental, cultural, land development and transportation issues.
