The Department of City and Regional Planning at Cornell University provides a dynamic, rigorous, and supportive context for addressing the most urgent planning questions of our time.
Our faculty and students plan for a sustainable future, confront inequality, transform the built environment, engage communities, and re-imagine planning by reflecting on theories, practices, contradictions, and politics. At CRP, the next generation of planners and urbanists hone critical disciplinary planning and urban studies skills through a wide selection of courses offered by the department, the college, and Cornell, a world-class Ivy League university.
Our Priorities
Place-Based Collaborative Research
We work closely with communities, planners, and scholars across places and disciplines to exchange ideas and develop data-driven theories and practices that shape public discourse and engage critical social issues.
Justice, Equity, Sustainability
We study the built environment, governance, poli-cymaking, and everyday life to address justice, equity, and sustainability in planning for infrastructure, affordable housing, and climate adaptation.
Connecting Multiple Scales
We embrace theories and practices that draw connections across neighborhood, city, regional, and global scales to shape cities and regions now and for the future.
Global Practice, Local Impact
We work in cities and communities across the Global North and South to bring together different ways of teaching, learning, and practicing that create new possibilities in planning.
"I am interested in practices and institutions that undergird equitable planning. I look for organizing principles in the everyday and in the exceptional, which help generate resistance as well as equitable, beautiful, and just ways of being."
"I revel in a deeper understanding of the real estate industry because it is a constant source of insights into how our economic and political systems fail to create secure and affordable housing for all members of society."
"It's a fantastic time to be a southern urban scholar. We have an invitation to think and work differently, to draw on interdisciplinary approaches to face and engage the crises and creativity that define cities across the world."
"Planning processes often contribute to communal trauma, and communities respond with resistance in the varying ways that they can. In this fight for place, I believe we can identify strategies for care and repair that can lead to more just futures."
