The W.P. Carey School of Business has partnered with the School of Public Affairs to offer students an innovative new degree. The B.A. in Business Urban Policy will train future leaders to effectively address the challenges of rapid growth along with other contemporary urban issues. Students examine and engage these issues through multiple lenses—historic, social, cultural, economic, and political. Graduates will be well equipped to deal with the wide range of economic and business development issues. Historically urban planners have had little business background, but function in a system where business success is a key ingredient in high-quality, dynamic urban policy. Graduates of this degree program will be prepared to address urban policy issues from a highly qualified business perspective.
