Vision: Transforming the way we design and manage critical systems in large, urban centers to benefit all residents.
Mission: SPUR will engage a diverse group of partners to co-design smart technologies to engineer critical systems for urbanized communities. New technologies created by the center will focus on addressing problems most significant to people in these communities: economic opportunity, equity, inclusivity, long-term sustainability, and resilience against disruptive events.
