Malaysia Sustainable Cities Practicum

The Malaysia Sustainable Cities Practicum is an intensive field-based course that brings 15 graduate students to Malaysia to learn about and analyze sustainable city development in five cities in Malaysia. The students in the Practicum will help determine the extent to which these efforts have been successful. They will identify specific projects or policy-making efforts that the following year's cohort of International Visiting Scholars can examine more closely. The OCW site features an extensive collection of working papers and video summaries about the projects.

Access the materials: https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/urban-studies-and-planning/11-384-malaysia-sustainable-cities-practicum-spring-2018/index.htm

Taught by: Prof. Lawrence Susskind
