We're thrilled to welcome Ivis Garcia, a specialist in housing and community development, who will be joining the faculty as a new professor in the Department of Landscape Architecture and Urban Planning this fall.
"Through a unique, asset-based framework which guides her scholarship, Garcia promotes access, inclusion, empowerment, and representation in planning research, education, and practice. She is a renowned expert and key voice in Latinx planning issues and will be a dynamic presence in our classrooms and research centers.

An award-winning collaboration
Residents of Nolanville, Texas see a bright future for their town as the result of an ongoing collaboration with #urbanplanning students; the project includes exploring the feasibility and benefits of autonomous vehicles as an everyday mode of transportation in their town.
The collaboration earned Texas A&M the W. K. Kellogg Foundation Community Engagement Scholarship Award, which recognizes outstanding community-university engagement projects.
The ongoing project included a February 2020 communitywide event, featured in this video, with tech-based demonstrations by Texas A&M students from a wide array of disciplines and an informal #planning session.

Howdy! Guten Tag! The Landscape Architecture students led by Professor Tom Woodfin had their final review earlier today. The students presenting their work to urban planning peers and other AIB professors and staff. That is a wrap for our study abroad students this semester.

It’s that time of year! The Urban and Regional Planning students presented their collaborative projects with Landscape Architecture students on Wednesday for their final review. The premise for the semester project was based on Germany’s current plan to exit coal mining practices within the coming decades. The students were divided into teams and each given a section of the city to develop and design around. The class had the opportunity to present their ideas to the stakeholders of the city of interest and each team received high remarks!
AIB hosted a traditional Thanksgiving dinner for all American students which our Aggies concluded with a Fightin Texas Aggie War Hymn! WHOOP 👍🏼 We are wishing everyone a safe and Happy Thanksgiving from abroad!
