Abstract

Bringing international perspectives to education has been a concern of many academic areas. In the case of urban planning, a professional field, this means preparing students to practice effectively in the variety of contexts found in the United States and around the world. The urban planning accreditation requirements and the views of graduates of accredited programs practicing abroad are herein examined. The vast majority of graduates suggest that a more “international view of planning†be incorporated into the curriculum. Based on specific suggestions from graduates and the current content of the accreditation guidelines, the authors recommend ways in which a global approach can be brought to planning education.
