to the University of Toronto's newest initiative in urban research.
Mandate
The Cities Centre is a multi-disciplinary research institute established February 2007 in response to one of the five major research priorities defined in the University’s "Stepping Up" plan. The mandate of the Centre is broad: to encourage and facilitate research, both scholarly and applied, on cities and on a wide range of urban policy issues, both in Canada and abroad, and to provide a gateway for communication between the University and the broader urban community.
Administration
The new Centre became official on November 15, 2007 with approvals from the Council of the John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape, and Design (FALD), as well as from Arts and Science, Applied Science and Engineering, and SGS. The Centre reports through FALD to a Committee of Deans from the participating faculties. As of November 20, 2007, administration of the Centre for Urban and Community Studies (CUCS) was transferred from SGS to Cities Centre. The Centre premises are at 455 Spadina Ave.
