To provide students with a broad understanding of the structures, processes and agents that shape urban/regional society and spaces. The overall aim is to make students aware of the dynamic and interconnected relations that exist within and between urban/regional society, spaces and places. In order to develop an understanding of cities/regions this course will draw upon a number of academic disciplines – sociology, geography, environmental studies, economics and politics.
Processes influencing land development and shaping built environments. Housing, jobs, transport, infrastructure and the structure of cities. Government policies and urban and regional development. Cities, regions and diversity. Alternative ways of theorising about urban and regional development. Sustainable cities and regions.
