During the coming academic year, Green Urbanism will no longer be the “mandatory” Senior Seminar for Environmental Analysis. Instead, it will be offered as a stand-alone course for any interested juniors and seniors (with a pre-req of EA50 and possibly Professor Miller’s “Cities in Nature” course). Our urban planners Ted Bardacke and Walker Wells will be taking students much further into pre-professional training than in years past, and it is not appropriate to ask all seniors, some of whom may not be that interested in this topical area, to undertake the course accordingly. 

Instead, Senior Seminar will take place in the spring semester as a once-a-week evening seminar course. We are experimenting this semester with the seminar format (including possibly bringing in outside professionals to teach research based team-modules) and more information will be provided toward the end of this semester or possibly at the beginning of the Fall, so “watch this spot.” In any event, the Senior Seminar, meant to be both a capstone course for you seniors and a helpful transition to the Real World, will be required of each of you.
