== The urban design education == {{Globalize|section|date=January 2022|US}} The [[University of Liverpool]]'s Department of Civic Design is the first urban design school in the world founded in 1909.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://news.liverpool.ac.uk/2013/05/22/event-celebrates-oldest-planning-school-in-the-uk/ | title=Event celebrates oldest planning school in the UK - University of Liverpool News | date=22 May 2013 }}</ref> Following the 1956 Urban Design conference, Harvard University established the first graduate program with urban design in its title, The Master of Architecture in Urban Design, although as a subject taught in universities its history in Europe is far older. Urban design programs explore the built environment from diverse disciplinary backgrounds and points of view. The pedagogically innovative combination of interdisciplinary studios, lecture courses, seminars, and independent study creates an intimate and engaging educational atmosphere in which students thrive and learn. Soon after in 1961, [[Washington University in St. Louis]] founded their Master of Urban Design program. Today, twenty urban design programs exist in the United States: * [[Andrews University]], Berrien Springs, MI * [[Clemson University]] - Charleston, SC * [[Columbia Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation]] - New York, NY * [[City College of New York]] - New York, NY * [[Estopinal College of Architecture and Planning]] at Ball State University - Muncie, IN * [[Georgia Institute of Technology College of Design]] - Atlanta, GA * [[Harvard Graduate School of Design]] - Cambridge, MA * [[Iowa State University]] - Ames, IA * [[New York Institute of Technology]] - New York, NY * [[Notre Dame School of Architecture]] - Notre Dame, IN * [[Pratt Institute]] - Brooklyn, NY * [[Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts]] at Washington University in St. Louis - St. Louis, MO * [[Savannah College of Art and Design]] - Savannah, GA * [[Stuart Weitzman School of Design]] at University of Pennsylvania - Philadelphia, PA * [[Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning]] at University of Michigan - Ann Arbor, MI * [[University of California, Berkeley]] - Berkeley, CA * [[University of Colorado Denver]] - Denver, CO * [[University of Maryland, College Park|University of Maryland]] - College Park, MD * [[University of Miami]] - Miami, FL * [[Stuart Weitzman School of Design]] at University of Pennsylvania - Philadelphia, PA * [[University of Texas at Austin School of Architecture]] - Austin, TX * [[University of North Carolina at Charlotte]] - Charlotte, NC In the United Kingdom, Master's programmes in Urban Design at [[University of Manchester]] or [[University of Sheffield]] and [[Cardiff University]] or [[London South Bank University]] and City Design at the [[Royal College of Art]] or [[Queen's University Belfast]] are offered.
