The course will introduce students to the planning process by reviewing commonly used planning practices and tools. The course provides broad overviews of different planning topics. By the end of this course, the students will build a “planner toolkit” that planners need to professionally conduct their planning tasks. Students will be expected to apply skills and concepts learned in class to a simulated planning project based on a real neighborhood in Connecticut.
