Description
The Master of Urban and Regional Policy (MURP) provides sophisticated analytical skills combined with a thorough understanding of how cities and regions work for graduates who will occupy key research and policy-making positions in an array of urban-focused public, non-profit and private sector institutions. MURP graduates will be part of the next generation of key strategists in urban and regional policymaking, leaders with the ability to analyze global economic, technological and social trends, develop policy responses designed to enable their respective cities and regions to adapt to those trends, and move those policies toward implementation.
