Course Description:
In this studio, readings and discussions concentrate on the key issues confronting contemporary urban planning practice. Students will develop a broad, international and comparative perspective on issues such as planning theory, infrastructure, smart cities, zoning and equity, the politics of real estate, or urban policy and law generally. The goal of the studio is hands-on, practical exposure to professional practice in urban planning and development in Connecticut, the US, and around the world. Approximately one hour per week is a remote/virtual weekly discussion with practicing planners and urban developers. |
