My name is Lauren Hoover and I’m the Associate Director of Admissions and Financial Aid at the University of Pennsylvania Stuart Weitzman School of Design.
We will be participating in the annual Chicago Architecture + Design College Day on Saturday, September 21, 9:00am-1:00pm CDT. We are hoping that you might pass this information on to any of your interested undergraduate students. They will have the opportunity to speak with me and a Weitzman alumnus about our graduate and professional degree programs in the following areas:
City & Regional Planning, offering six concentrations:
Housing, Community and Economic Development
Land Use-Environmental Planning
Public & Private Development
Smart Cities
Sustainable Transportation and Infrastructure Planning
Urban Design
Historic Preservation, offering four concentrations:
Architectural Conservation
Preservation Design
Preservation Planning
Public History of the Built Environment
I specifically wanted to highlight our Master of Landscape Architecture professional degree programs as we have found that students in your undergraduate major of study may have interest in this field.
The Chicago Architecture + Design College Day is a great way for your students who are considering graduate study to speak with many different graduate and professional schools all at once. If any of your students are interested in attending, further information about the event can be found here: https://www.chicagocareerday.org/.
