Journal Descriptions

The Journal of Planning Education and Research (JPER) is an established, peer‑reviewed scholarly journal dedicated to advancing knowledge in the field of planning, with a special emphasis on education, theory, and practice. First published in 1981, and published quarterly by SAGE Publications on behalf of the Association of Collegiate Schools of Planning (ACSP), JPER has become a central platform for rigorous academic work that contributes to the development of urban and regional planning as both an academic discipline and a professional practice. The journal welcomes a diverse range of articles including empirical research studies, theoretical inquiries, comparative analyses, pedagogical reflections, and critical commentaries that push the boundaries of planning scholarship. JPER’s interdisciplinary orientation draws on related fields such as political science, urban geography, economics, and sociology to enrich planning debates and provide deeper insights into complex planning phenomena. Its audience includes university faculty, graduate students, professional planners, and policymakers interested in the latest developments in planning education and research. Through its high‑quality content and rigorous double‑blind peer review, JPER contributes to shaping how future planners are educated and how planning ideas are applied to real‑world challenges in cities and regions across the globe.
