MCRP
The two-year Master of City and Regional Planning program is a professional degree emphasizing applied study in preparing tomorrow's leaders for planning and developing the nation's towns, cities, and regions. The nationally accredited program began in 1968 and has over 400 graduates. The MCRP program typically has annual classes of approximately 15-20 students, providing the opportunity for extensive faculty involvement in teaching, research, and public service.
Planning students are equipped to meet opportunities facing communities in many creative ways. Many first-year students work two days per week as department assistants for professors or in planning related entities. Students typically work full time as interns in planning or development organizations during the summer between their first and second academic years. During their second year, most students work two days a week with a public, private, or nonprofit entity as student public service assistants (SPSA). This allows them to gain additional professional experience. Students also interact in interdisciplinary teams.
