Course Description
This class is designed to illuminate how women, and their families, interact in the urban and suburban areas that comprise the modern city, the special urban challenges they face as women, and how the nexus of sex, race, and class plays out in modern sprawling cities. The ultimate objective of the readings and discussions is an assessment of the public policy and planning implications of the observed patterns and trends. The course is geared to upper-division and graduate students in a wide range of disciplines and professions: geography, planning, psychology, women's studies, political science, public administration, civil engineering, sociology, economics, anthropology...and more. Graduate-level requirements include a final report worth 25% of the student's final grade.
