Urban Disasters: Economics, Risk, and the City — PEC2286.01

Spring 2026
Instructor: Lopamudra Banerjee
Days & Time: TU 2:10pm-4:00pm
Credits: 2

Catastrophic events—droughts, earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, and landslides—are growing in frequency and intensity around the world. As more of the global population concentrates in urban areas, the nature and consequences of these natural hazards are taking on a distinct and often violent shape in today’s metropolises and megacities. This course investigates how urban life reshapes both the impact of disasters and our capacity to respond to them.

Spring 2026
Instructor: Omeed Goodarzi
Days & Time: FR 2:10pm-4:00pm

The Tuning in the Trees is an advanced seminar in microtonality that treats tuning systems as both technical structures and living landscapes. Students will explore how musical intervals emerge from natural patterns—such as tree bifurcations, harmonic ratios, and number sequences—while engaging deeply with Just intonation, Meantone, Bohlen–Pierce, and other non-Western tunings.

This singing ensemble is dedicated to the preservation and performance of African-American sacred and inspirational music and other songs from the African diaspora (including South and West African and Caribbean songs).

The course will culminate in a program on campus where we will share from the music we’ve learned.
