Urban Design: a certificate program  

Urban Design Courses for Autumn 2009

 

 

The following is a list of Autumn Quarter courses that will count toward certificate requirements. Please see the time schedule for meeting times, registration information and updates on course availability. Entry codes are available from departmental offices. If you have problems registering for classes, email me and I'll do what I can to help you.

Just a reminder: the certificate program is designed to give you 12-15 credits of urban design courses that do not overlap with your degree requirements (but which can fit within your elective coursework). Please talk to Neile if you have questions about what that means for your coursework.
