Urban Studies

Urban studies is an interdisciplinary, inter-college major that prepares one to think critically about the urban and metropolitan environment in which most Americans live. Both the urban studies major and the urban studies minor provide an excellent background for students who wish to pursue advanced training for careers in local and regional government, urban planning, public administration, the academic world, and positions with various private institutions that deal with urban problems.
