(MA/MSC) Cities

Course Overview

Across millennia, cities have been centers of political and economic power, orchestrating the social and cultural life of their populations. Today, rapid and widespread urbanization is creating new challenges. Cities come to reflect global inequalities, acting as hubs for transnational mobility, concentrating difference, and generating new forms of cultural expression and activism. Graduates go on to careers in the local and national government, urban planning, housing NGOs and community organizations, civil service and private sector consultancies, and international NGOs working on issues of habitat and urban redevelopment.
