Urban Science | Six New Sections Established

In order to specifically develop different research areas and attract more high-quality papers, under the guidance of the Editor-in-Chief, Prof. Dr. Luis Hernández-Callejo, Urban Science (ISSN: 2413-8851) has established 6 new Sections.

The new Sections are tailored to refine the classification of urban studies, helping authors identify the most relevant submission scope and enabling readers to quickly access research in their focus areas. The six Sections include:

  • "Urban Planning and Design";
  • "Urban Environment and Sustainability";
  • "Intelligent Cities and Technology";
  • "Urban Mobility and Transportation";
  • "Urban Economy and Industry";
  • "Urban Governance for Health and Well-Being".

Special lssues and papers will be reorganized to align with the new Section structure.

Each Section focuses on distinct core themes, with detailed "Section Information" (covering concept overviews, key research priorities, and welcome topics) available on the journal’s official website. We warmly invite scholars worldwide working in urban-related fields to submit high-quality original research or reviews to the corresponding Section, and look forward to advancing interdisciplinary exchanges and innovations in urban science together.

In addition, we are currently recruiting Editorial Board Members (EBMs) and Guest Editors for all Sections. If you are an active researcher in this field and are passionate about publishing cutting-edge research, please contact us at jr-urbansci@mdpi.com.
