PLAN 2110

This class made me realize how much I love GIS and planning work!

Most weeks, there's one cumulative assignment testing the skills you learned in class, which is started on the Friday before its due. I will say that the class adds up to a decent amount of work towards the end. The final project was 10+ hours of work, which was a lot when you have other finals to attend to.
Professor Walker was a good teacher, and had great tutorials and resources for us. I learned a ton and kept the skills after the class ended. I suppose this review doesn't matter much, as planners have to take this class - but rest assured, you'll enjoy it.

This was a really fun and enjoyable class that taught important skills for anyone looking to go into the field of planning. Even if you are not interested in becoming a planner, I highly recommend this class. This semester we worked primarily with ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS online with some Adobe Suite work as well. Professor Walker was a really chill professor who was always there to help, made the work load manageable, and was not a harsh grader. The assignments and projects were very thoughtful and I enjoyed completing them. This course was much less stressful than other studio courses I have taken inside the School of Architecture. Also, you will walk away with a portfolio of work that you can use in the future when applying for jobs or graduate school. I know that the nature of this class really depends on who your professor is. Students in the past have had to do a lot of work in Rhino, so I would definitely research the professor who is teaching the course before signing up.
