The University of Maryland's Urban and Regional Planning and Design Ph.D. program takes full advantage of the resources of a leading research university and the surrounding metropolitan area. The program is small and highly competitive, and gives students an opportunity to bridge disciplines, including urban planning, design, historic preservation and real-estate development. Our nationally-known faculty, the National Center for Smart Growth Research and Education, and our location in the Washington, DC metro area make the University of Maryland an exciting place to study urban planning, design and historic preservation.
