ABOUT
Studying in the Master of Urban Studies program at the university of Vienna:
The Joint Master’s program in Urban Studies places European urban societies and spaces at the core of application-oriented teaching. By learning relevant and advanced social science methods, students are equipped with the tools to analyze and evaluate urban transformation processes from a variety of perspectives. Moreover, theoretical approaches to urban geography and transdisciplinary research are taught by an international and interdisciplinary group of professors.

Subsequently, this combination of inspiring leadership, intercultural cooperation, and enhanced knowledge of novel methods, concepts, and terminology, empowers students with the ability to craft sound solutions to urban problems and provide robust and scientifically grounded policy advice.
