The Berkeley Program on Housing and Urban Policy
was established in the fall of 1998 to promote academic excellence and national leadership
in housing studies and the application of knowledge to urban policy. The Program involves
academic and professional leaders to further its research and educational objectives. The Program supports economic research and teaching throughout the campus on urban development and policy.
The Program arranges internships for professional students
and encourages closer links between the university and the community of urban
professionals. Institutional support for the Program is provided by the I. Donald Terner Distinguished Professorship, established in 1999 to
honor the legacy of a pioneer and innovator in the delivery of housing affordable to
American families. The Program conducts an annual conference
each spring in Don Terner's memory, covering diverse topics in housing and urban policy. The Program also draws institutional support from the Haas School of Business, the College of Environmental Design and
the Goldman School of Public
Policy at the University of California, Berkeley. The Program is administered by
Berkeley's Institute
of Business and Economic Research and is associated with its Fisher Center for Real Estate and
Urban Economics.
