Faculty Advisers for Urban Studies

Yale does not have a department or major in urban studies; nevertheless, several Yale faculty members have made themselves available to advise students interested in urban studies. Advisers help students identify appropriate sequences and combinations of courses. Advisers also meet with students writing senior essays on interdisciplinary urban topics.

Faculty Advisers for 2017-2018
Laura Barraclough (American Studies)
Elihu Rubin (Architecture)

For the 2017-2018 academic year, Elihu Rubin (elihu.rubin@yale.edu) will serve as the primary point of contact for students interested in urban studies.
