Cities are the quintessential landscapes of human activity; they act as centres of government, learning, economic activity, social interaction, and often as spaces in which new ideas and radical societal changes are first conceived.
While more than half of humanity lives in a city, Canada is at the extreme end of the urbanization spectrum, with 83% living in urban areas. Is this degree of urbanization sustainable? How do housing, transportation, and community development shape the social and cultural fabric of a city? How do cities influence the lives we lead? What lessons can we learn from cities abroad, and what can they learn from us?
The 9-course unit Urban Studies microprogram allows students to explore these questions, deepen their understanding of the urban landscape, and acquire tools for analyzing and thinking critically about cities and the role they play in our lives.
