NYU Wagner's Master of Urban Planning program brings students into direct contact with the critical urban challenges of our time. Today's urban planners must balance development, social justice, provision of critical public services, sustainability, and security. Housed within a school of public service, the Master of Urban Planning program uses the broader contexts of policy, management, and finance to prepare students with the critical thinking they need to succeed in land use, economic and community development, housing, and environmental and infrastructure planning.

Program: This 50th anniversary celebration of the Urban Planning program is hosted by NYU Wagner and the Urban Planning Student Association. The event will begin with a keynote address about Hurricane Sandy recovery and rebuilding from the Honorable Shaun Donovan, the United States Secretary of Housing and Urban Development and Chair of the Hurricane Sandy Rebuilding Task Force.
