等了一个学期，终于等到了自己觉得比较对胃口的课。美国的规划对于理论和数据要求很严格，反倒对于技术方面强调的不多，因为我是urban design concentration的，所以个人对和技术以及实例相关的东西更感兴趣一些。下面介绍一门PennDesign规划系的urban design concentration学生必修的一门课，CPLN 708-Urban Design Methods

自己不多说，引用syllabus里面的话，最后再附上完整文件

COURSE DESCRIPTION:
This course is designed as an introductory survey of urban design
methods associated with both practice and research. The course begins with a series of discussions
on the field of urban design, attempts at definition, history of the field, basic epistemology, traditional
and emerging roles, and design communication.

The first half of the course concerns issues and methods in urban design practice, situated either in
the private or public sector – including both direct and indirect design. Topics to be covered in this
portion of the course include: design processes, land use controls and development standards, code
writing, regulation, design guidelines, non-computational representation techniques, design
participation, urban design planning and strategizing.

The second half of the semester then focuses on urban design research methods in both professional
and academic settings. We will review common models of research design within the field and the
increasing use of social science methods in response to external pressures. Students will be exposed
to various research methods used to understand and analyze urban form, social behavior and
environmental psychology. We will also examine various methods in built environment analysis,
including both morphology and typology. Both qualitative and quantitative methods will be examined
and built into course exercises.

This course is a spatial method elective core requirement for the City Planning masters degree and
also serves as a required methods course for the urban design concentration. It is strongly
recommended for students who intend to practice either direct or indirect urban design, as well as
others who plan on working in positions dealing with project development, design, or long term
planning. No prerequisite courses are required for entry into the course, although some familiarity
with the Adobe Creative Suite is required.
