Overview

Key facts

The dual Architecture and City and Regional Planning program at Georgia Institute of Technology allows students to earn two complementary sets of strong educational credentials in two years plus one semester, rather than the three years required by the two separate degrees. Graduates of the program are prepared for employment in professions related to both geospatial technologies and city planning.

The program’s graduates work for a wide-variety of employers including private sector consulting companies, non-profit organizations, and government agencies at every level of government. MCRP+MS-GIST graduates are also well-prepared to pursue Ph.D. work in city and regional planning or geographic information science.

The curriculum consists of the core requirements for each of the two professional programs and, in addition, a set of dual requirements that focus upon urban design as a common ground linking the theory and practice of the two disciplines. The dual curriculum builds upon five major bodies of material:

Design studios as a basis for exploring architectural, urban design and development issues utilizing theory, method and professional practice paradigms
Urban history and design theory as a way of understanding the formal and architectural order of the city
Economics and development methods as a basis for formulating development projects
Process and methods as a means of understanding professional practice and of designing policies and strategies that can be implemented in a private market regulated by public bodies
The performance of design interventions in achieving specified economic, social, and environmental objectives
