Focuses on aspects of Seattle's architecture, urban planning, landscape architecture, construction, and real estate history, as well as the events and influences that have shaped and continue to shape the city's built environment. Considers what might be done to address current pressing urban issues.

B E 200 Introduction to Built Environments (3) A&H/SSc
Introduction to critical issues related to the planning, design, construction, and use of our built environments and the roles of the various disciplines contained within the College of Built Environments. Offered: A.

B E 210 A Global History of the Built Environment I (5) SSc/A&H
This course critically examines built environments over time using a global perspective beginning with First Societies through 1st millennium CE. The global perspective encourages thinking about history in a transnational and transgeographical manner. The course is broadly structured around the concept of "time cuts" that allow for comparisons across regions and cultural formations.
