Center for Urban and Regional Studies
The Center for Urban & Regional Studies at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill conducts and supports research on urban and regional affairs—research that helps to build healthy, sustainable communities across the country and around the world. The Center's Faculty Fellows—all leading scholars in their respective fields—participate in both multidisciplinary research and more narrowly focused projects to generate new knowledge about urban and regional processes, problems and solutions. By supporting this network of scholars and connecting them to government agencies and foundations that commission research, the Center plays a vital role in linking the University community to ongoing efforts to address contemporary social problems.
