Expanded Course Description
| Urban exclusion has manifested in different forms throughout history as the result of prejudice, intolerance, and discrimination. These consequences have had profound effects on the form and function of cities, and, in turn, on the ability of underrepresented segments of the population to reach their full economic and human potential —and in some cases their ability to be valued members of society at all. Typical populations that are adversely affected by explicit physical and social urban exclusion include low income communities, communities of color, women, and minorities from sexual, religious, and differently-abled backgrounds. As cities become more diverse, designing with communities becomes increasingly complex and challenging. This course investigates the relationship between social and economic inclusion and the built environment of cities through a range of scales (building, neighborhood, district, city, region) and from multiple design and policy disciplines (architecture, planning, urban design, nonprofit management, public policy, landscape architecture, historic preservation, and environmental studies). This course emphasizes critical perspectives and student dialogue of these issues. Students will also learn how to write in varying formats and give oral presentations to strengthen communication skills. Social equity, environmental justice, and economic opportunity – and the critical perspectives through which these and similar topics are addressed – will enable students to better understand, advocate for, and build communities that are more inclusive, healthy, and just. The course is mutually beneficial for design and policy-oriented students interests in the social and cultural factors that influence the built environment (race, ethnicity, indigeneity, class, sexuality, gender, religion, and other elements of identity), and other students interested in the role of the built environment and design on social structure, culture, and space. |
