The new Bachelor of Science in Urban Technology has a sequence of four design studios. The first studio in the program sequence needed to be designed and launched in three months from complete scratch. Twenty students would meet three [3] times a week for three [3] hours over the course of a semester.
I was the first program-specific professor hired.
The students come into the program interested in cities, technology, and design. In contrast to training them around a discipline such as mechanical engineering or computer science, which is more aligned to a role, we train them around the domain of urbanism and give them the tools needed to improve the urban environment.
Students are expected to graduate into 1) the technology sector, 2) design agencies, or 3) government / non-profits / institutions related to the urban environment.
