Master of City and Regional Studies Degree

The master of city and regional studies (M.C.R.S.) is a 30-credit degree offered specialized circumstances. Applicants must hold an advanced degree and have planning practice experience.

Program of Study

Requirements and standards for admission are otherwise comparable to the M.C.R.P. two-year degree. The 30 credits required for this degree include core required courses in theory and urban economy and two semesters of methods, including Planning Methods (34:970:515). Studio courses are not required. Course concentration can be determined with faculty advising. All M.C.R.S. candidates are required to pass an extensive comprehensive examination.

International Students

International students may take coursework from other Rutgers units to complement the program of study. In addition, international students take on a series of professional research and internship experiences throughout their program of study with planning and public policy private, non-profit and government section organizations. All professional work experiences must be approved by the advisor/program director following school processes and with the Rutgers Global Center for proper CPT paperwork. OPT opportunities are also available if approved by the Rutgers Global Center.
