पाठ्यक्रमबारे सारश

This program has four integrated components: a core curriculum, an area of concentration, an internship, and a studio. Its purpose is to train planners who, like their counterparts throughout the nation, share a general expertise in theory, methods, and urban structure, have a specialized knowledge of a policy planning area and have the skills and intellectual maturity to operate in the professional arena. The 60- credit program is structured to provide students with the expertise essential to professional practice and to allow for maximum flexibility to accommodate individual interests. The core curriculum (27 credits) provides basic training in planning. This encourages students to define clear academic and professional objectives so as to plan orderly progress toward achievement of their degrees and entry into the field. Students with multiple professional interests may wish to pursue joint degree programs with other New York universities. For example, a joint master of urban planning/juris doctor, available through a cooperative program with Brooklyn Law School, allows students to earn the two degrees in four years of full time study. Other joint degree programs may be pursued with the approval of the department. The graduate program offers the following areas of concentration: housing and real estate, economic development, land use and design, transportation and environment, human services, and general practice. In general, each concentration is designed to give the student a working knowledge of a broad functional area. To fulfill the concentration requirement students select four courses from the suggested list.
