Urban Economic Development MSc alumni experiences

Explore our Urban Economic Development MSc alumni's experiences studying with us, and what they have gone on to do next.

My Urban Economic Development MSc empowered me to move back to Lebanon after 5 years abroad, at a time when my country was going through a severe political and economic crisis. I joined the Beirut Urban Lab at the American University of Beirut (AUB) as a researcher and research coordinator, investigating the socioeconomic impact of the 2020 Beirut Port Explosion.

All the knowledge and competencies I acquired during my year in The Bartlett Development Planning Unit allowed me to start working on urban economic analysis projects as soon as I returned to Mexico and opened me the doors to join my regional government’s agency for urban development and mobility, as Economic and Policy Advisor.
