This is an extremely insightful course. I'm hoping to apply this knowledge one day in my third world home country and improve the cities back home.

Very good course. Indeed it helps me to understand sustainability in built environment holistically. However I still need to complete another 2 courses in this specialization course; Sustainable Neighbourhoods and Sustainable Transportation Networks and Streetscapes which are not included for free enrolment in the specialization. I wonder why?

The content is good. But to be honest it is kinda boring. The instructor just reads a slides and nothing more. There is no one to discuss with or answer questions. The slides also have many typos...

the info was good, but the professor sounded a bit monotone which made it hard to focus at some points, but overall amazing course.

Normally, I always learn something or the other in any course I undertake however this specialization is unique in being banal and cliche. They give very positive and obvious ideas (like plant trees, install solar, encourage public transport, maintain historic buildings, reduce sprawling, etc.). Moreover, they do not delve into policy and techno-commercial aspects that impede such sustainable developments in the first place from happening. They do not explain why some stakeholders have vested interest in developing cities revolving around used based building code and not form based urban development. They do not explain how it can be overcome except for few examples that may not be universally scalable. Lastly, the course is an information dump of repetitive ideas from a professor lacking any sense of personality or humor.
