Urban Fellows
Interdisciplinary Excellence
One of the unique strategic advantages of the Urban Institute is that it draws on the broad participation of SMU faculty and research staff from across all of our Colleges and Schools.
From the realms of economics, sociology, geography, to law and informatics, our Urban Fellows collectively represent a cross-section of knowledge that is critical in understanding, addressing, and solving the most pressing urban challenges of our time.
