Full-Time and Part-time Tracks
Students can choose to study either full-time or enroll in the part-time track for working professionals, attending some courses during the evenings and on weekends.
Full-Time Track
Our accredited urban planning MS program usually takes two years of full-time study. The program requires completion of twelve or thirteen courses (36-39 credits) plus a thesis or capstone exam for a minimum of 42 credit hours.
Part-Time Track for Working Professionals
Using a trimester format for graduate coursework, the part-time accredited urban planning program allows working professionals to work full-time while attending some of their courses during the evening, online, and/or weekends, allowing completion of the program within three years, depending on student pacing. Some required courses are only offered during the business day; please consult the upcoming semester’s course schedule for the most up-to-date information. Requirements are the same as full-time study.
