Summary
Madison often ranks at the top of best places to live, but what makes a city thrive? In this class, we will consider zoning, green space, traffic, walkability, technology and other variables critical to a city’s success. Students will brainstorm solutions to real-world constraints, using the great UW Campus as an example to explore. This course will boost your data analysis, design, and presentation skills as you present your proposal on how to make our campus an even better place to live, work, and learn.
