Equitable + Resilient Development

2 credits · Graduate

The course will include discussions of various approaches to resilience and engage multi-disciplinary experts who bring resilience into their research or professional work at multiple scales: building, district, city, and region. Major infrastructure system investments and equitable community co-benefits are also key topics as they impact the physical and financial requirements for site design and development. We will examine new approaches to urban design, equity, insurance, and policy that can be applied to students’ parallel design projects.
