As part of a research institution, masters\u2019 students experience how research impacts design. Because research methods are woven into the graduate curriculum, students&nbsp; learn important concepts about research that is relevant to professional practice.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ph.D. in Urban &amp; Regional Sciences program is one of the largest in the country, with the most diverse range of research topics available. Because of our size, students work with their peers on similar projects. Ph.D students are mentored by a faculty member from the start of the program. They\u2019re paired based on similar research interests, and work closely with their mentor throughout the program.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Landscape architecture students whose projects tackle pressing environmental issues in Texas earned awards for their work from the Texas Society of Landscape Architects. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":32,"featured_media":11513,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":true,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[59,88,63],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v20.12 (Yoast SEO v20.12) -
