Undergraduate information

I teach a variety of undergraduate courses in the Department of Geography. Most of them deal in some way with cities, political economy, or policy. Students can access the most up-to-date information through q.utoronto.ca if they are a registered student in the course. Here is a list of courses taught with links to recent course outlines. These are not official course outlines (those are only available through quercus), but they should provide sufficient background on each course if you are undecided on whether to register.

Undergraduate courses taught in 2022-23:

Fall 2023--GGR 259: Urban Growth and Decline

Spring 2024--GGR 359: Comparative Urban Policy
