The 18 elective credits may be taken among the courses listed as electives in City & Regional Planning Program and/or the university as a whole. However, students also have a choice to take up to a maximum of two electives at surrounding universities in the metropolitan Baltimore area. Electives not taken within the City & Regional Planning Program must meet with faculty approval.
Since late Fall 2005, the program has focused its energy on developing two concentrations. These are “sustainable cities” and “transportation planning.” The first specialization will draw from graduate programs in Architecture and Landscape Architecture, as well as the City and Regional Planning program in terms of specialized courses and faculty expertise. The second will draw from courses and faculty expertise of the Graduate Transportation Program in the School of Engineering. We are considering developing new electives as well as revising our old electives to cater to these specializations. The effort has already been initiated and is expected to take a definite shape by Spring 2007.
