The goal of this course is to improve the engineering design of a city and its components. The course focuses on the city as an entity; which concentrates living organisms, societal organizations and activites; and machines, interacting with the environment both outside and inside the city. Throughout the class, a number of essential questions about the future of cities will be examined such as: 1) What does urbanization mean for the future of humankind in terms of resources, capabilities, ideologies, and culture? 2) How can the design of cities affect their future? 3) What should be the role of the engineer? 4) How can the engineer of the future be prepared for that role? 5) What critical engineering interventions are needed to influence the future of today's cities? Each student will select a project dealing with some aspect of the course, and present its results to the class. Cross-listed as CE 4053. Prerequisite: instructor's permission.
