The Master of Urban Planning (MUP) program prepares students to become practitioners and leaders in the planning profession by providing students with a deep intellectual grounding and advanced skills and techniques. The program can also form the basis for the Ph.D. in planning or advanced research positions. This concentration is focused on developing an understanding of the terms, theories, ideas and analytical skills that surround land use and transportation planning. Land is the basic resource upon which our communities are built, and it is unique in that it is both scarce and fixed in location. Land uses affect the environment, interact with one another, and depend on transportation and infrastructure in order to function. Land use planning relates to the physical environment where we live and work. Transportation connects us to all of our activities, and it connects communities. Transportation and land use are mutually dependent and inseparable. Land use and transportation planning are the traditional responsibilities of local and regional planning agencies, and sometimes state agencies that support them. They are also the responsibilities of consulting firms who support the work of these public agencies. UP 503, Physical Planning, is the core course that provides an introduction to this field. Recommended foundation courses provide added depth in techniques and theories of land use and transportation planning. Electives can be used to provide further depth, or to provide breadth in closely-related fields.
