MATUP Class of 2014–

PhD Candidate of Sociology at Boston College.

Matt is a PhD candidate in Sociology at Boston College. He received his MA in Theories of Urban Practice in 2014. What brought him to MATUP was his search for a critical and creative approach to exploring cities, oriented toward intervention or action. In the MATUP program, he found that the university can indeed be a platform and a catalyst for actionable theory, reflective practice and activist scholarship. Matt continued to address critical questions and struggles while carrying on doctoral studies at Boston College.
