In our capstone planning studios, students collaborate in teams to tackle real-world planning problems and hone their knowledge and skills. In the fall semester, our students tackled some of the most pressing urban challenges facing Atlanta, such as urban design for new developments and enhancing underutilized spaces. Both studios were guided by Aaron Fortner, a principal at Canvas Planning Group, an urban planning and design consultancy. In the spring semester, our students traveled to Puerto Rico (with Professor Alberto Fuentes) and Japan (with Professor Perry Yang) to apply their knowledge at international settings.
