Welcome to the course website for Introduction to Smart Cities. This is a core course for Masters of City Planning students in the Smart Cities concentration at University of Pennsylvania‘s Weitzman School of Design.

We’re posting our course materials here to share them with you. This course takes place in person, though. Should you want to go beyond these readings and take a smart cities course, under Resources you can find links to courses offered online.

If you have questions, please contact me, Allison Lassiter.

Want to dive into urban sensors? See my other smart cities course, Sensing the City, for Arduino labs, tutorials, and projects.
