The UC Berkeley Department of City and Regional Planning strives to enhance fairness, economic vitality, and ecological health across neighborhoods, communities, and urban areas by generating knowledge and fostering involvement through education, research, and public service. Our goal is to develop sustainable, cost-effective, and inclusive urban spaces, infrastructure, and amenities that benefit everyone.
Effectively shaping public spaces—whether at local, national, or international levels—presents significant challenges. Our evolving urban landscape faces rapid transformations. Limited resources, technological advancements, urban renewal projects, and growing community activism are reshaping traditional planning approaches.
We maintain that planning education must consistently prioritize justice, equality, and ethical considerations. Our program emphasizes teaching participatory methods, collaborative policymaking, and community advocacy while working to transform governance structures, policies, and planning methodologies to achieve these objectives.
