Implications of increasing urbanization are widespread: from environmental challenges, to segregation, to new political and social movements. This course provides an overview of different disciplinary approaches to understanding urban systems, drawing on engineering, the social sciences, urban planning, and the natural sciences. Students will learn from other disciplines to enrich the study of cities within their own field and be better prepared for interdisciplinary collaborations.
