The Department of Urban Design and Landscape Architecture prepares future professionals whose designs will enhance the quality of urban life by means of natural and built elements.

The Bachelor's in Civil Engineering (Municipal Engineering) of Urban Engineering specializes in public infrastructure, ie technical and transport infrastructure, public spaces and public amenities. Specialization provides students with a comprehensive set of knowledge about the theory of urban and urban construction, technical infrastructure and economic areas.

The Historic Preservation and Community Planning program approach the subjects of historic preservation, architectural and urban design, planning, and architectural and urban history as a group of related disciplines that together address the management of change in the built environment from a design perspective.

In the Industrial Design program, you will learn how to develop new products that are used in our daily lives. These may include everything from everyday products to mobile apps. You’ll be encouraged to design sustainable products that will last many generations, keeping in mind diverse cultures.

Cities need designers who understand the built environment. This eight-month graduate certificate responds to that demand, teaching you to design inclusive and sustainable solutions that connect and integrate urban landscapes. Sheridan is one of the few colleges in Canada to offer this niche training, which is traditionally taught in master's level studies.

Having enrolled in the bachelor’s study program Architecture and Urban Design, you will acquire the basic theoretical and practical background necessary for the profession of an architect and obtain the corresponding knowledge, skills, and competencies. Graduating from the Architecture and Urban Design Study Program will provide you with the diploma that enables you to apply for further architectural studies and you will be entitled to cooperate on architectural and urban design projects under supervision in architecture studios in Europe and beyond. This certainly qualifies you to study architecture and/or urban planning at the Master's degree level at the Faculty of Architecture and Design (FAD) as well as in related study programs at other European universities.

Do you love the character and buzz of urban places? The Landscape Architecture with Urban Design degree course will help you to gain real industry exposure and work on a wide range of exciting briefs. The course focuses on offering experience through practice, which will enhance your chances of securing a role after you graduate.

The Department of Architecture and Urban Design will familiarize students with design theories and techniques that focus on architecture and urban environments that could be inhabited by civilians with a sense of assurance and pleasure.

The BFA Architectural Design (BFA AD) program at Parsons combines comprehensive education in design methodology, coursework to develop creativity, and training in the material, spatial, and making practices of architecture and urban design. As a program housed in a school that offers an accredited MArch degree, BFA AD prepares students for a pathway to licensure in the state of New York. Many students choose to pursue graduate study in architecture, some through Parsons’ 4+2 program, which enables undergraduate students to take graduate courses in their senior year and shortens the typical three-year MArch course of study to two years.

The School of Urban Studies offers a Bachelor of Arts in Urban Studies with two formal options: Community Development & Planning and GIS & Spatial Planning.  The degree starts with an introduction into the discipline of urban studies with course topics on exploring cities, world development, and urban studies "in practice".  The formal options deliver focused theory and skill-based courses that teach how to understand and impact the local and global dynamics of urban society. 

According to the Department of Census statistics, almost 80 percent of the United States' population lives in urban areas. What does that mean? Real world value for an Urban Studies degree.

Our Urban Design, Planning and Development course offers you a unique learning experience. Our approach is based on a structure of Urban Labs, interconnected modules and study trips in the UK and abroad. You will learn how the disciplines of urban design, planning and development are integrated. And you will understand how to use this framework to impact the future of cities and create great places. Visiting speakers and live projects provide you with opportunities to apply theory to practice.
