TRP490   Urban Futures   (15 credits)

Description

For the first time in human history most people live in cities and it has been predicted that cities will continue to grow into the future, bringing new challenges and opportunities for urban living. How we plan for future urbanisation requires creative thinking and new ways of seeing cities today and in the future. Urban Futures challenges students to think critically and creatively about the future of urban living, focusing on the ways that cutting-edge theories, data and methods can help inform the practices employed by built environment professionals in responding to uncertain urban futures in a global context.
