HME 202 - Building Urban Sustainability and Resilience
(5-0-5)
This course provides an interdisciplinary approach to understanding cities and systems-based sustainability and resilience solutions to climate change and environmental problems. The course will: introduce students to the study of cities and metropolitan areas as complex social, ecological, and infrastructural systems; examine the past, present, and future social and environmental challenges faced by urban areas; expose students to the ideas and methods of the sustainability and resilience planning paradigms; give extensive attention each week to case studies of sustainability, resilience, and adaptation from around the world, U.S., and urban areas across Georgia. Throughout the course will encourage students to use their imaginations to explore positive, transformative solutions to urban problems using an integrated social-ecological systems approach.
