Track options include Urban Transformation and Resilience, Diversity and Social Justice, Urban Analysis: Smart, Sustainable and Resilient Cities, and Governance of Post-Industrial Cities.

Professionals with a background in architecture, urban design, urban planning, civil engineering, and other related fields of study are welcome to join.
