Established in 2018, the ACSP Rising Scholar Award recognizes early-career scholars who demonstrate strong potential for a meritorious impact on planning scholarship. The award committee commented on Tian鈥檚 strong research trajectory demonstrated by his publications and grants while teaching eight different courses since he began his tenure-track appointment at 亚洲无码.
The Association of Collegiate Schools of Planning is a consortium of more than 100 university departments and programs offering planning degrees as well as programs that offer degrees affiliated with planning. It also has individual faculty, retired faculty, and student members. Most of its school members are located in North America, particularly the U.S., but its individual members are from around the world.
