Join us this January as we explore processes of physical urban change through a sustainability lens in the incomparable setting of north India. In Delhi, Sonipat, Mathura, Agra, and Fatehpur Sikri, we will explore how these cities and their buildings have been transformed due to environmental, aesthetic, and socio-economic forces. We will learn about sustainability indicators and key challenges that all global cities face—climate change, the need for shelter, water, food, energy, and transportation, waste management, environmental and heritage conservation, environmental justice, and how to imagine and plan for a more sustainable future.
This interdisciplinary program welcomes students from all majors and schools. The course is cross-listed in Global Studies (GSGS3530) & Architecture (ARCH3500/5500).
