Graduate-level: • Hazard Mitigation and Disaster Recovery (new preparation). This seminar course focuses

on practical and theoretical issues of hazard mitigation and disaster recovery. It covers disaster recovery at household, business establishment, and community levels. It also covers various approaches to hazard mitigation, including community protection works, building practices, land use planning, and insurance. Students work with communities recently struck by natural disasters to understand the complexities and challenges of disaster recovery, and perform risk assessment and social vulnerability mapping to help communities plan for long-term disaster resilience.

• Structure and Function of Urban Settlements/ Structure and Function of Cities (new preparation). This course introduces students to forces that originated and shaped urban areas. It helps students to understand what a city is, how cities work, why and how cities evolve. It covers in-depth examination of transportation and urban form, urban sprawl, economy and urban form, and discussions on cities for a sustainable future.

• Analytical Methods II. This course teaches students regression analysis. Content covered includes how to perform multiple regression analysis (MRA) and interpret the results; use diagnostics to select the correct model specification for MRA; correctly specify and interpret limited dependent variable models such as Logit, Probit, and censored and truncated regression model; and correctly specify and interpret panel data models.

• Research Methods in Planning and Design (new preparation). This course covers basic empirical research methods used in planning and design research including experimental, survey and case study designs; comparisons of the various methods; and application of techniques in sample selection, data collection and analytic approaches.

• Special Topics in Regional Economic Development (new course developed). This course

introduces students to the fundamental theories about state and local economic growth and provide students with a toolbox of strategies and policies. This course introduces students to various state and local economic development theories and traditional and innovative economic development strategies.

• Directed Study on Economic Vulnerability and Resiliency (new course developed). Through this directed study, students review journal articles, book chapters, and other scholarly publications on the definitions of vulnerability and resiliency by various disciplines (i.e., ecology, sociology, and economics), the factors that affect economic vulnerability and resiliency, and research designs to study vulnerability and resiliency.

• Directed Study on Sustainable Economic Development (new course developed). Through this directed study, students review scholarly publications on the definitions of sustainable development and sustainable economic development, factors that affect economic sustainability, and theoretical framework to study sustainable economic development.
