Description
In this applied course, students work as part of the CityStudio Campus Course Network on large-scale projects associated with the City of Vancouver's Healthy City Strategy, Greenest City 2020 Action Plan, or independent projects focused on urban social sustainability. Through experiential learning, students analyze existing problems, use ideas grounded in established geographical principles and theory, and seek to innovate, devise, and implement real-world solutions. Students engage in research and develop critical thinking, problem solving, project management, structured teamwork, and design skills.
