The Urban Planning Emphasis within the Doctor of Philosophy degree in Geography caters broadly to national and international students, its primary focus is on the Mountain West (Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming) which is the nation’s most urbanized region as well as its fastest growing. By 2050, the region may double in population to nearly 40 million people with nearly 25 million jobs. Much of the existing built environment will be rebuilt. Given global climate change, limited water supply, problematic air sheds, fragile landscapes, and growth pressures, sustainable planning and development is an imperative – more so in the Mountain West than perhaps any other region in the US. The Urban Planning Emphasis will help prepare the next generations of scholars and researchers for the interdisciplinary challenges of shaping urban areas and their regions to become sustainable and resilient.
With an Urban Planning Emphasis, Geography doctoral graduates will be competitive in urban planning academic programs, due to their rigorous training in the foundations of planning theory, practice and research.
