पाठ्यक्रमबारे सारश
This program focuses on the spatial organization of activities and land use within cities as well as the connections between cities in larger urban networks. Urban geographers also study the processes and forces that effect change in urban areas, including population growth and distribution, ethnic makeup, political movements, and industrial patterns. Urban geographers focus both on the unique or distinctive characteristics of individual cities and on the similarities that exist between many urban centers. This concentration is intended for students interested in graduate work or employment in urban, regional, or community planning or development, in transportation or health services planning, in urban studies, in public affairs, or with the department of housing and urban development or the census bureau. While jobs in planning are available to students with a degree in geography, students who pursue graduate work in urban planning will have enhanced employment opportunities. Students who do not plan to do graduate study in urban planning should seek out internship opportunities in order to gain experience and contacts.

आवास सम्बन्धी विस्तृत जानकारी
The Office of Residential Life works to provide safe and comfortable living and learning communities. It intentionally designs programs, services, and leadership opportunities to foster an environment conducive to achieving academic goals, personal growth, and the development of community. The nine residence halls and two apartment complexes are home to 2000 undergraduate students. Of these residence halls, one houses members of VU's six national sororities. All first-year, sophomore, and junior students are required to live in approved University housing. The University provides local telephone service, a telephone, and a voice mail box for each student living on campus. All residence hall rooms have been upgraded to receive a customized channel line-up with more than 75 channels of entertainment, sports, news, local broadcast and educational content. The service will be broadcast throughout campus and will be provided free to campus residents as a convenience of occupancy. All that is necessary to receive the service is a cable ready television set and a coaxial cable to connect the television to the cable outlet in the wall. Pets (except fish), waterbeds, microwaves (except in Guild, Memorial and Wehrenberg Halls), candles and any open heating coil appliances are not permitted. Alcohol, drugs, and firearms are also prohibited. Each hall has kitchen facilities for resident use. Microwaves are available in most floor lounges, but are not allowed in student rooms (except for Guild, Memorial, Kade/Duesenberg German House, and Wehrenberg Halls) because of electrical supply limitations. Since most other appliances are prohibited, students are encouraged to prepare food in the appropriate kitchen located in each residence hall. Guild, Memorial, Kade/Duesenberg German House, and Wehrenberg halls are air conditioned. In addition Compass Pointe Apartments are air conditioned. There is an added cost for rooms in these halls.
