-Degree Requirements-
School Location
The PhD is the advanced research degree planning or urban studies. Admission requirements are substantially the same as for the master's degree, but more emphasis is placed on academic preparation, professional experience, and the fit between the student's research interests and the department's research activities. Most, but not all, successful applicants have previously completed a master's degree.

The doctoral program emphasizes the development of research competence and flexibility in exploring questions that no single academic discipline can answer. Examples include the role of institutions in economic development and the rapid diffusion of information and communication technologies into urban planning and design. Students work under the mentorship of a faculty advisor. They may center their activities on any subfield in which the faculty have expertise.
