Welcome to Poets&Quants by John A. ByrnePoets & QuantsAuthor on July 9, 2010 Why Poets & Quants? Because it’s part of the language and culture of every MBA school. Back in 1988, when I was management editor of BusinessWeek magazine, I created the first regularly published ranking of business schools. Poets&Quants is the first of a dozen websites we’re launching as part of my new company, C-Change Media. Urban Planning The Urban Planning Program has as its mission the education of individuals in the (1) fundamental economic and political processes that shape the built environment of cities, (2) ways in which governments, community-based organizations, private sector actors, and political mobilizations produce and influence these processes, and (3) crafting of collective efforts to improve the quality of life of city residents. The tensions among market forces, civil society, and the goals of planning are of major concern. Particular attention is given to the importance of expert knowledge and the quest for social justice. In pursuit of these goals, the program focuses on the ideas and techniques developed by planners and social activists since the emergence of the planning profession in the early twentieth century. To this, the faculty adds knowledge from the social sciences, architecture and urban design, historic preservation, and the humanities.
