Dennis Smith, NYU Wagner Associate Professor of Public Policy, explores this question his new video now available on our website.

Heleen Mees, a Dutch economist, lawyer and columnist, will be joining the NYU Wagner faculty this fall. One of the courses, “UPADM-GP 420: Managing Global Economic Crises: From the Great Recession to the EuroZone,” will focus on financial crisis and globalisation.

Professor Katherine O’Regan, NYU Wagner Associate Professor of Public Policy and  and Director of the Public and Nonprofit Management and Analysis Program (PNP) recently sat down for an interview to answer the question, “Are low-income neighborhoods helped or harmed by current Federal affordable-housing policies? “ and talk about why she’s dedicated her life to a career in public service. Check out the link above to see her latest video and to learn more about Prof. O’Regan’s bio, publications and courses.

We have some new Pinterest boards! Check out “NYU memes” to see why we love the NYU Timekeeper and how NYU occupied Kimmel before it was cool to occupy Wall Street. Our “Urban Inspiration” board catalogues everything from smart cities to the London Underground that inspire and intrigue our Masters of Urban Planning (MUP) students. 

NYU Wagner’s Master of Urban Planning program, recently rated the #2 program in the country by U.S. News and World Report, brings students into direct contact with the critical urban challenges of our time.
