At a degree congregation held at the University of Sheffield in December, Debabardhan Upadhyaya was presented with a Doctorate for his thesis entitled “Changing Paradigms in Evolving City Centres†supervised by Eamonn Canniffe. Among other places the thesis explored the city of Mumbai which features in the attached short film. Dr. Upadhyaya will also be contributing a chapter on Mumbai to the book â€The City Past and Present: Global perspectives on urban history and change†to be published by Ashgate in 2008. Student and supervisor are pictured outside their former workplace, The Arts Tower, home of the University of Sheffield School of Architecture.
