COURSE INTRODUCTION & OUTLINE:

This educational course will address the challenges associated with Urban sprawl (also known as suburban sprawl or urban encroachment) - the unrestricted growth in many urban areas of housing, commercial development, and roads over large expanses of land, with little concern for urban planning. In addition to describing a special form of urbanization, the term also relates to the social and environmental consequences associated with this development.
