How should our cities and regions grapple with issues around public health, crime, economic development, housing, education, segregation, gentrification, and transportation access and equity?
POLI 443: Urban Problems and Policy Analysis asks you to join me in understanding these issues, how we got here, and where we are going.
This course will feature a mix of discussions (seminar style course), simulations (Fun activities where you get to experience first-hand how to address these issues from different perspectives), and guest lectures from those in the community grappling with these challenges.
