The program offers students an opportunity to enhance their study of urban or regional development by spending a semester abroad and by studying closely with a faculty member who has similar interests.

In addition to gaining access to a Trans-Atlantic network of professionals involved in development studies, students will gain research experience and access to expertise on a particular research issue.
