Urban Studies???

<p>Plz provide me with further info about this major. It sounds very appealing to me, and I am just curious if there's any specific things I should know before deciding on majoring in Urban Studies.</p>

<p>And what top schools in the nation have excellent Urban Studies major???</p>

<p>I'm an Urban Studies (American) concentration within my Social Policy major. Basically urban studies is interdisciplinary field where you study everything about cities: history, sociology, politics and culture. You take urban-themed courses in the social sciences and possibly the arts to fulfill the major. Some schools vary on honors thesis: some require an internship or you just write a thesis.</p>
