URB-UY 3234 Planning for Healthy Cities

This course is designed to introduce students to the role of the built environment in promoting community health, focusing on the neighborhood scale. Although urban planning and public health are closely related in their history and their goals, these fields are typically taught and practiced independently. The course will examine health issues that can be influence by urban planning, and will explore the role of transportation, land use planning, urban design, community development, and environmental policy, to promote public health.

Prerequisite(s): Completion of EXPOS-UA 1  or EXPOS-UA 4 .
Note: Satisfies a humanities and social sciences elective.
