The Bachelor of Science in Design degree with a major in Housing and Urban Development (BSD-HUD) prepares students for professional leadership in the production of high-quality and affordable housing. The program is offered jointly with the College of Extended Education in cooperation with the Del E. Webb School of Construction, the Department of Business Administration, and the Schools of Architecture and Design. Instruction by full-time faculty and leading practitioners is aimed at both non-traditional and traditional students. Students attend evening classes at ASU's Downtown Center and also participate through distance-learning technology. BSD-HUD students are admitted competitively to the professional program. The program provides studio and seminar instruction in residential and community planning, design and development, combined with actual field exposure to market housing and development as well as public and nonprofit community revitalization. Courses include construction management, real estate, accounting, land-development law, ethics, and computers. Graduates may pursue careers in private industry, in public and nonprofit housing and redevelopment, or in postgraduate research and education. The BSD-HUD is in the forefront of university programs specifically dedicated to education in the design, development, and production of housing.
