Careers

The urban design program emphasizes sustainable interventions or strategies at neighborhood, city and emerging city or regional scales. Lectures, studios and seminars provide a broad range of tools for placemaking and consensus seeking, and address alternative landscape and transportation infrastructure, climatic responsiveness, urban preservation, historic typologies, economic strategies, and financing incentives with emerging technologies.
