Welcome to Season 9 of Choose UCalgary, the University of Calgary's prospective student podcast. The Choose UCalgary Podcast is intended for any prospective student who is hoping to learn more about the University of Calgary. We will chat with key representatives from the UCalgary community to help keep you updated and informed on all things UCalgary.  

Episode 24: In today’s episode, we explore the innovative and boundary-pushing world of design in the Bachelor of Design in City Innovation (BDCI) program in UCalgary’s School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape (SAPL). We’re joined by passionate students Chloe and Hayley, along with Chad Connery, Assistant Professor at SAPL, who share what it’s like to be part of a program that challenges conventions, fosters world-building, and prepares students to address today’s most pressing issues. Learn how SAPL’s interdisciplinary, studio-based approach creates space for exploring diverse fields like fashion, sustainability, urbanism, computational design, and more, all while reimagining the future of our built environment. Plus, hear about the BDCI's exciting move to downtown Calgary and what it means for future students.
