Education


The school supports a wide variety of educational activities, from undergraduate and master's and doctoral degree programs to continuing education courses and conferences for professionals and alumni. The school also hosts international fellows programs, which provide education and professional development opportunities for individuals from nations around the world.

The core purpose of all educational programs is to enhance students' understanding of the theories, methods, and practice of planning and public policy. The school's educational programs encourage open discussion of all viewpoints, the application of quantitative methods for analysis, the careful study of history, and a thorough consideration of economic and demographic trends and political institutions and processes.

Full- and part-time students examine theories and methods in a wide variety of concentrations, including community and economic development, public health, workforce development, land use, housing, transportation, urban design, education, social policy, science and technology policy, and environmental policy.
