from applicants, we have not yet been able to fully update the Minerva system
to indicate which items have been received and processed. All individuals who
have applied online by the deadline (15 January) will be contacted by email
to confirm whether supporting documents are outstanding. Applicants will then
have an additional week to submit unofficial documents if necessary. Your
patience is appreciated as the administrative staff are working through a
great volume of material.

Welcome to the McGill University
School of Urban Planning
The School draws students from around the world. Through our core Master of
Urban Planning degree and the optional concentration in Urban Design, we
train professionals for the public, private, and not-for-profit sectors in
two years of intensive study, much of which takes place in real-life group
projects using the Montréal metropolitan region as a living laboratory.
The School’s aim is to give individuals the intellectual and practical skills
needed to excel in the field and thereby to improve human settlements around
the world. Find out more by exploring our website!
In memoriam
The School announces with great sadness the peaceful passing of Professor
Emerita Jeanne M. Wolfe on 20 December 2009.
Professor Wolfe was an unequivocal champion of good planning and Canadian
urbanism, a mentor to several generations of practitioners and scholars, and
a dear colleague and friend. She was recently honoured by being named to the
Order of Canada, an event celebrated in Fall 2009 at the School.
While Professor Wolfe's passing away is an enormous loss, she will
undoubtedly live on in the work of the countless people she taught and
inspired across Canada and around the world.
People who wish to honour Jeanne Wolfe’s memory may do so by contributing to
the fund for the “Jeanne M. Wolfe Fellowships in Urban Planning” which she
helped to establish shortly before her death.
Cheques for contributions should be payable to “McGill University—School of
Urban Planning” and bear the note “Jeanne M. Wolfe Fellowships.” They should

Donations may also be made online. Please

outstanding individual.
