Brian Rosa
Assistant Professor of Urban Studies
I am a researcher and educator in urban studies, and have experience teaching in the fields of urban planning, sociology, geography, architecture, and art. My interests are at the intersection of the built environment, the political economy of urban (re)development, critical urban theory, cultural studies, and experimental qualitative methodologies. As of Fall 2014. I am an Assistant Professor of Urban Studies at Queens College CUNY, having most recently held the position of Lecturer in Urban and Community Studies program at the University of Connecticut, Storrs. My current research deals with the relationship between urban infrastructures, deindustrializing cities, and the way “left-over” spaces of the city are re-appropriated. More broadly, I am interested in the experience of the city, urban imaginaries, and thinking of the built environment as a dynamic artifact of social relations.
