The American Planning Association (APA) is the premier source of news and networking opportunities for urban planners around the country. Each year, the Florida Chapter of the APA hosts its own conference bringing together planners from across the state. This year the conference was held in Sandestin, in the Florida Panhandle, on September 10-13. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Department of Urban and Regional Planning is proud to have such accomplished students and faculty who not only attended the APA Florida Conference but also presented and received awards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Ruth Steiner gave a presentation entitled “I See Land, or Is It Water? Risk Based Transportation Planning for Uncertainty.\u201d Here Dr. Steiner shared her current research on transportation planning in the face of sea level rise and other climate risks.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thomas Hawkins, AICP, and Dr. Lauren Harbin, AICP, spoke about ways they are adapting studios in the online master program to solve real-world problems: \u201cRaising Fingerlings into Adult Fish in New Waters: How Two Professional Planners Are Adapting Planning Studio Courses for Online Instruction at the University of Florida.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The University of Florida offers the only master\u2019s degree in planning that has an entirely online option. Offering this degree online has required innovation to create entirely new methods of collaboration, content delivery, and student assessment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
