This is exactly where I am with DS24 right now. He really wants to study Urban Planning but it’s all over the place in terms of majors and how science focused it is. You have BS/BA, more focused on GIS/Practical, more policy based. You can find it as it’s own major, as a minor in a variety of departments (for example it’s in Political Science at BU, but in Geography at Dartmouth). Two years ago I was complaining how hard it was to figure out where to apply as a mechanical engineer and the different admissions statistics that were not always available. I’d take that issue over this one any day.
