CRP 2010 - Cities, Technology and Society 3 Credits (3 Contact Hours) Traces the evolution of cities from the dawn of agriculture and sedentary living through the smart cities of the future. Considers urban development across many diverse regions of the world, with a special focus on the United States. Chronicles the growth and development of technological systems (for example for water and food distribution, fire suppression, building, transportation, defense, and sewage removal), and how these technologies have interacted with urban social structures (such as ideologies like religion, urban governance and legal systems, openness to innovation, economic institutions, etc). Relates these topics to the practice of community development and city planning.
