The faculty in the School of Planning offer curricula that provide an education for careers in environmental planning, housing and urban development, urban and regional planning, and urban design. The goal of the faculty is to advance the profession of planning through scholarship, teaching, research, and community service. Planners work on projects that range in scale from site development to the design of entire communities and the formulation of policies that shape urban and regional growth. Planning graduates work for private firms, government agencies, and nonprofit organizations. Their work typically involves fields such as land-use planning, housing, natural resource management, urban transportation, development controls, and environmental impact assessment. The programs are organized by the faculty of the school under the direction and administration of the program coordinators and the school director. The faculty in the School of Planning offer the Bachelor of Science in Planning degree in Urban Planning, and the Bachelor of Science in Design degree in Housing and Urban Development. Bachelor of Science in Planning (BSP) The BSP degree prepares students for careers in urban planning. Students take courses that include comprehensive planning, socioeconomic and environmental analysis, computer and analytical methods, planning law, site planning, landscape architecture, urban design, and public-policy formulation and administration. An internship or an approved elective is required between the third and fourth years. Many students continue to specialize in planning at the graduate level. Students in planning are exposed to the theories, methods, and practices of the profession of planning. Bachelor of Science in Design (BSD) A BSD degree with a major in Housing and Urban Development (HUD) educates and trains professionals to lead in the production of high-quality affordable housing, in the development of creatively designed and soundly planned neighborhoods and communities, in the revitalization of communities, and in the exemplification of social inclusiveness and environmental sensitivity in responsible land development. HUD graduates may pursue careers in the private home development industry, in publicly sponsored housing and community redevelopment, with nonprofit housing agencies, or in postgraduate housing and urban development research and education. The BSD degree with a major in Housing and Urban Development is offered in conjunction with the School of Extended Education. The minor in Urban Planning is designed for students who are interested in the field but who wish to pursue other majors. The course selection is designed to provide an overview of the field and offer information of broad appeal. All students must complete PUP 301 Introduction to Urban Planning plus a minimum of 15 semester hours, of which nine semester hours must be from upper-division courses (for a total of 12 semester hours of upper-division course work) from the following courses: PUP 100 Introduction to Environmental Design HU, G, H (3) PUP 190 Sustainable Cities HU/SB, G (3) PUP 200 The Planned Environment HU, H (3) PUP 363 History of Planning (3) PUP 420 Theory of Urban Design HU (3) PUP 425 Urban Housing Analysis (3) PUP 430 Transportation Planning and the Environment (3) PUP 432 Planning and Development Control Law (3)

Students must, however, have an overall GPA of 2.50 or higher and achieve a minimum 2.50 GPA in minor classes to be awarded the minor. Students seeking admission to the minor in Urban Planning must submit a minor verification form to the student coordinator in the School of Planning. A concentration in urban planning is available under the Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies (BIS) degree, a program intended for the student who has academic interests that might not be satisfied with existing majors. Building on two academic concentrations (or one double concentration) and an interdisciplinary core, students in the BIS program take active roles in creating their educational plans and defining their career goals. For more information, see School of Interdisciplinary Studies. School of Planning faculty offer a Master of Urban and Environmental Planning (MUEP) degree. This is an interdisciplinary, professional degree designed to prepare students for leadership roles in planning within both the public and private sectors and from local to international organizations. Four specializations are offered: community and urban development, environmental planning, international planning, and transportation planning. The community and urban development specialization provides students with knowledge and skills in areas such as housing, economic and community development, public policy analysis, transportation, land use planning, urban design, and historic preservation. The environmental planning specialization provides students with knowledge and skills in such areas as sustainable design, environmental resources, growth management, environmental policy analysis, open space design, and conservation. The international planning specialization prepares students to work in the diverse and changing urban fabric of developing nations and in U.S. cities, with their growing multinational and multicultural populations. Transportation planning focuses on: nonmotorized transportation, economic development, border issues, and the environment. Faculty also participate in offering a collegewide, interdisciplinary PhD degree in Environmental Design and Planning with concentrations in design; history, theory, and criticism; and planning. For more information, see the Graduate Catalog. Lower-Division ProgramNew and transfer students who have been admitted to the university and who have selected a program in the School of Planning are admitted to the lower-division program. Transfer credits for the lower-division program are reviewed by the college and evaluated for applicability to this curriculum.
