The Master of Science in Urban Informatics prepares the new generation of experts to navigate the technical and socioeconomic landscape on which life in the city unfolds, and to confront key social, infrastructural, and environmental challenges facing cities in the 21st century.

This is an innovative program. Only a handful of U.S. universities offer degrees in urban informatics.

Program Experience

Our experiential learning opportunities are a hallmark of Northeastern’s graduate programs. All Graduate CSSH Master's programs offer an optional cooperative educational experience (co-op) to eligible students.

Northeastern’s signature co-op ecosystem at the Arlington campus provides qualified master's students with six-month research and work opportunities at businesses, nonprofits, government agencies, and other organizations in the National Capital Region and across the United States. Graduate students take their work from campus learning spaces, apply it outside the classroom in various environments, and then bring that knowledge and those skills back to our campus learning space during the one-credit Experiential Integration course.

To learn more, interested students should first meet with their program director to determine eligibility and where the co-op experience will fit within the student’s curriculum.
