William Jeon
Urban Studies 2017
What I liked most about the Urban Studies program was the amount of resources available at York and the help offered by professors and teaching assistants which helped me through my degree.
I was also pleasantly surprised about how interesting the classes were and how one class allowed us to receive some international urban planning experience in Buffalo, New York. It is important to have a basic understanding of cities, and development (in the urban studies/urban planning field) as it allows you to ask deeper questions and to see a broader perspective on why things are built a certain way.
