Urban Studies
|
|
|
The Urban Studies concentration is designed to encourage the student to think in an interdisciplinary (or multidisciplinary) manner. All students are required to take one Introduction course, one Research Skills course, six Basic Curriculum courses (3 core courses and 3 seminars), and two Complementary Curriculum courses.
Core courses must cover 3 of the 7 core areas: American Civilization, Economics, History, History of Art and Architecture, Literature, Political Science, and Sociology. Thus, even though there is a reasonable range of courses identified in the Basic Curriculum, this section of the concentration program is strongly structured.
The Complementary Curriculum is more flexible. The student, in consultation with the concentration advisor, is required to select two urban studies related courses. Here, students are not only permitted, but are encouraged to consider additional course offerings including, but not limited to, those in the traditional disciplines.
