Testimonials
“I truly
value what I learned in the Sustainable Urban Management course; however, I
believe that each lecture could have benefited from class
participation/discussion. Overall, I enjoyed this course! (Instructors A
and B gave excellent and intriguing lectures!)”

chance to access to the libraries, therefore I had used the Architecture
library several times.” |
