Changing Demographics of the City

Catalog description

This course focuses on the meaning, causes, and impacts of demographic transformations on socially and spatially defined urban political economies. Students learn how to use demographic and economic data to analyze the present and future shape of cities, both in the United States and abroad, and the implications of such transformations for the various residents of cities and for policy and decision making in public and private sectors. This course is identical to HSP 3045. Students will receive credit for either BLS 3045 or HSP 3045, not both.
