Architecture 305 - Tpc: Urban Sustainability

'This course explores ways in which urban landscapes can be shaped within an environmentalist agenda and how healthy living can be achieved in the context of rising population, climate change, and global economies. By developing methods of investigation pertinent to sustainability, students will formulate strategic planning and design proposals related to community revitalization, the public realm in cities, affordable housing, and environmental stewardship. While the course welcomes interdisciplinary perspectives, assignments will develop skills and knowledge compatible with architecture, urban design, and landscape architecture and regional planning.'

This course is open to Juniors and Seniors. Prereq: 8 credits in ARCH, ARTH or ENVST
