The Master of City Planning (MCP) prepares students for a wide variety of professional roles in planning for urban and regional development. The professional regional city planner frequently functions as a member of a multidisciplinary team and may be involved in such tasks as the analysis of policy alternatives, formulation of public investment programs, forecasting and monitoring urban and regional systems performance, development of joint programs among various public and private sector institutions, and plan design and implementation.
Candidates for admission to the degree program are selected on the basis of academic transcripts, academic and personal references, and interviews or statements of intent. Applicants with an undergraduate grade point average (GPA) lower than 3.0 are encouraged to submit additional information to demonstrate their capacity to succeed in graduate school. There are no fixed application deadlines. The program allows students to submit applications on a rolling basis. Admission decisions are announced promptly pending receipt of all application materials. Students can also register for and take up to two Metropolitan College Urban Affairs or City Planning courses prior to applying to the degree program.
