About the Department

Shaping Sustainable Cities, Designing Livable Communities.

The Department of Urban & Regional Planning is a dynamic and future-oriented academic unit committed to training professionals who will shape the physical, economic, and social fabric of towns, cities, and regions. Our program is designed to equip students with the knowledge, skills, and critical thinking necessary to develop sustainable, inclusive, and functional environments that respond to the challenges of urbanization, climate change, infrastructure development, and population growth.

At the core of our curriculum is a multidisciplinary approach that blends theoretical instruction with practical experiences in land use planning, environmental design, transportation, housing policy, and urban governance. Through studio work, field studies, and community-based projects, students engage with real-world planning problems and develop innovative solutions that impact lives.
