A geography minor in urban planning is available at Western, but that's the extent of what Western offers in that area. I was enrolled in it at one time but I decided not to pursue it further after second year. Ironically, I'm planning to go back into that field now that I have my undergraduate degree in management. There are some professors at Western involved in urban planning research, including that "food desert" study from a year or so back.
