Students will increase their understanding of how social, economic and political factors impact individual lives and how people live and interact in urban areas. Students will learn about the processes by which institutional actors influence patterns of human interaction for the purpose of improving the quality of life. The mission of the MSUS Program is to lead and engage communities in processes and institutions to improve the quality of life through an appreciation of the interactive effects among the human community, the built environment and natural systems in urban areas. Urban Studies at UNO equips students with the skills and understanding to address many of the most pressing issues facing society today, and most of them are urban in nature. We offer a set of core classes building a twin foundation of urban analysis and community engagement. However, because of our belief in a trans-disciplinary approach to learning, and our partnership with academic units across campus, students can develop a deeper grasp of a specific aspect of the urban environment, including but not limited to geography, history, sociology, political science, or economics. Finally, and maybe most importantly, MSUS students have the opportunity to apply skills and energy to meeting community needs and issue. Our students, faculty, and graduates work in public agencies and a wide range of community-based organizations in the metro region.
