Urban Analytics

专业介绍

The Master of Science in Urban Analytics degree is designed to give graduates a core of computing, planning, and data analysis and visualization skills to identify, analyze, and solve urban problems; to integrate those skills in an interdisciplinary way that other, single-discipline-oriented urban analytics degrees might not; and to provide depth in urban problems that can be addressed through data analytics. 

The program is interdisciplinary between the School of City and Regional Planning (SCaRP, within the College of Design), the Schools of Computational Science and Engineering and Interactive Computing (CSE and IC, both within the College of Computing), and the Stewart School of Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISyE, within the College of Engineering). Each of the four units (SCaRP, IC, CSE, and ISyE) provides expertise in a different facet of urban analytics, with interdisciplinary coordination achieved by having faculty cooperate on the development and revision of course content, especially in the core and required courses.
