Abstract

This analysis sheds light on planning education in Mexico. One important question that the paper addresses is: Are planning programs forming professionals capable of addressing the challenges that cities and regions face in the twenty-first century? The study draws upon a content analysis of 253 course syllabi and a database of 128 employed local planners. The results of the analysis suggest that planning curricula are still very much embedded in the rational model and there is a challenge for strengthening the curricula with more communicative skills that are valuable in a postmodern society.
