Exploring Human Connections in Urban Spaces
The Urban Design Minor explores human relationships and their expression in the physical landscapes that are cities. This minor will serve your interests well if you plan to pursue a career in government, public administration, social work, architectural design, planning, etc.
The urban environment is a physical manifestation of social values. Relations that comprise the realm of urban design involve not simply buildings and their creation, but the infrastructure, politics, economics, sociology, commerce, and history of cities.
Eligibility
A minimum 2.5 GPA is required for all courses in this minor. Courses must be taken for a grade (not credit/no-credit). Students planning to take this minor should consult with the chief departmental adviser.
