1 URBAN POLICY: SHAPING THE CITY COURSE # HEINZ COLLEGE SPRING 2016 Instructor: Jane Downing Telephone: Fax: downingj@pghfdn.org Course Time: Tuesday, 6:00 8:50 pm Course Location: Hamburg Hall 1003 Office Hours: By appointment Course Description: This course will examine economic forces and public policies that have shaped modern cities and metropolitan areas in the US and other countries. We will explore government policies contributing to metropolitan form as well as policies in community development, affordable housing, workforce development and the environment designed to mitigate those policies. We will conclude with a discussion of policies to support sustainable urban growth. The course will concentrate on the physical, geographical and built aspects of metro areas, but will also address the relationship between the physical nature and the quality of community that develops, focusing on low-income communities. Guest speakers will provide examples of how selected public policies are implemented in Pittsburgh. Textbooks: Richard LeGates and Frederick Stout, Editors. The City Reader (Sixth Edition). Bruce Katz and Jennifer Bradley. The Metropolitan Revolution: How Cities and Metros Are Fixing Our Broken Politics and Fragile Economy. Course Objectives: You will be able to identify policies that have shaped the physical environment of metropolitan areas and understand the impact of those policies on low income populations, the role of NGOs as change agents and the importance of civic engagement in a region s quality of life. Assignments and grading: Excerpts from the textbooks and handouts from the instructor contain the required reading for the course. Students will provide reflections on policy issues addressed in the readings for class discussion each week. In Week 3, students will select an urban policy issue to research and provide a written summary of the topic and approach. Week 6, a 15-page essay on the selected policy issue will be due. The essay will include a problem statement with supporting data about why the issue is important; an in-depth description of the selected urban policy; an analysis of its impact on low- income or minority communities. Each student will present a PowerPoint summary of the paper at the last class.
2 Grading for the course will be based on class participation (20%), weekly written reflections on readings (20%), policy paper (40%) and the final presentation (20%). I will assign a 0 if assignments are not turned in, papers are plagiarized or developed for another course. I expect each student to complete written assignments on his/her own.
