Testimonials:

"I chose Urban Studies at SFU because I was adamant about conducting industry-relevant research, and sought a program with a strong tradition of faculty and graduate students engaging with the city that it is located in." Natalie Chiang

"My courses have introduced me to a lot of interesting readings, namely on various urban development theories and approaches to housing. It's really enriched my understanding of how to tackle 'the urban problem,' if that even exists." Alie Lynch

"I chose SFU, particularly the Urban Studies Program, because of its demonstrated commitment to holistic and interdisciplinary approaches in urban research, as showcased by both alumni and faculty." —Kiara Scott
