Combine creativity and practicality
Community design studies the shape, patterns, processes, and issues in human and natural communities. It explores the world as a system of interconnected and embedded communities linked by cultural and natural processes. Our courses examine ways that people can work towards creating and maintaining healthy and sustainable communities.
We place an emphasis on design as a method of learning, analyzing, and addressing problems. We also focus on reasoned, creative, and practical outcomes. Our classes develop the knowledge and skills that allow you to analyze and create solutions for community issues.
