Urban & Sustainability Studies 12

This course explores the dynamic relationship among urbanization, society, and sustainability. Students will examine how urban spaces are shaped by geographic, economic, political, and social forces, and how decision-making in urban planning can create more sustainable futures. Focusing on the question: How can society and physical spaces be adapted to create a better world?, students are asked to think critically and collaboratively about local, national, and international examples of urban design, both past and present. Students will analyze the impact of government policies, urban planning decisions, and innovative sustainability approaches through project-based learning.
