Bio:
Dr. Milstead has been involved in urban planning and community development for most of the last fifteen years. From 1993-1999, he worked as a Transportation Planner for the West Florida Regional Planning Council in Pensacola, and from 1999-2001 he served as a U.S. Peace Corps Volunteer in Eastern Europe (Bulgaria and Bosnia-Herzegovina), working in the areas of municipal and NGO development. Dr. Milstead next spent time living and working in China and has recently conducted urban research and professional work in Central America. From October 2006 to October 2007 he was a U.S. Fulbright Fellow in Vilnius, Lithuania, conducting housing research in that former Soviet (newly European) capital city.
Research Interests:
Dr. Milstead’s overall academic interest is comparative cross-national urban planning research within the context of globalization. He has a particular interest in housing and, more generally, in the similarities and differences in how people across different geo-cultural contexts perceive and interact with their built (and non-built) surroundings, and the ways in which a better understanding of this relationship might lead to improved city planning. Other research interests include urban theory, planning theory and cultural heritage/historic preservation.
