WELCOME

“Scenes from the Horizon” is an image from the Yale School of Architecture’s
Joyce Hsiang and Bimal Mendis’ research project, “City of 7 Billion: A
Constructed World,” that reframes the world as one city—the ultimate design
problem. Read More



Yale Urban develops the knowledge, leadership and partnerships to understand and
solve urban challenges and create more sustainable, vibrant, and equitable urban
futures. It leverages the University's renowned strengths in the sciences,
policy, architecture, law, business, and the arts and humanities as well as
Yale's global research and engagement to develop new insights and solutions
across six urban themes. View Themes

“As we work toward a shared, sustainable future, urban research at Yale
exemplifies the approach we are called to take. This initiative, which draws on
not just engineering and architecture, but also economics, public health, and
the arts, emphasizes Yale’s deep commitment to devising innovative solutions to
the challenges that cities—and our planet—face.” 

Maurie McInnis, President of Yale University
