We, in the Department of Urban Studies and Planning are committed to positive social change. Our vision is translated into professional education in distinct ways:

• To improve quality of life of the world’s citizens
• To emphasize a democratic process in both private and public sectors, and acknowledge the necessity of government to ensure equality for all
• To use technology to facilitate social change
• We trust that the built environment can meet the needs of a diverse population, and give meaning to their daily lives.
