DRESSER UN BILAN :
EXAMEN ET ANALYSE DES COURS SUR L’HABITATION OFFERTS
DANS LES UNIVERSITÉS CANADIENNES EN 2010
Rédigé pour le Comité national de recherche sur le logement à l'issue d'une session
d'étude intensive sur l'enseignement de niveau universitaire dans le domaine de
l'habitation au Canada organisée par le
Département de géographie
de l'Université Western Ontario
London (Ontario) N6A 3K7
* Cette version révisée datant du mois d'octobre 2012 remplace celle d'octobre 2010 intitulée
Recueil des cours sur l’habitation et les secteurs connexes offerts dans les universités canadiennes.
Objet et portée de ce rapport
Ce rapport a été rédigé pour le Comité national de recherche sur le logement (CNRL) à
l'issue d'un colloque tenu en 2009 sur l'enseignement de niveau universitaire dans le
domaine de l'habitation organisé par Michael Buzzelli, Ph. D., du département de
géographie de l'Université Western Ontario (maintenant appelée l'Université
« Western »). Il fait également suite à des travaux menés par la Société canadienne
d'hypothèques et de logement (SCHL) relativement aux « carrefours de
recherche » présents dans les universités et les collèges du Canada. De plus, il est lié à
une enquête dirigée par le professeur Buzzelli sur les « cheminements de carrière »
dans le domaine de l'habitation.
La présente recherche avait pour but de découvrir quelles sortes de cours sur
l'habitation et les domaines connexes sont donnés par les universités dans l'ensemble
du Canada, à quels niveaux ils sont offerts et dans quels cadres professionnels ou dans
quelles disciplines plus vastes ils s'insèrent.
Cet examen est fondé sur une évaluation des descriptions de cours pour l'année
universitaire 2010-2011 réparties par discipline et par matière. Les descriptions
complètes forment l'annexe A. Les auteurs ont choisi les cours présentés dans cette
annexe après avoir effectué une recherche par Internet et avoir consulté des membres
du corps professoral des universités entre les mois de mai et de septembre 2010. Ce
travail prenait appui sur des recherches antérieures réalisées de novembre 2008 à août
2009. Ces dernières s'appuyaient dans certains cas sur un examen sommaire des
cours effectué en 2006 pour le compte de l’Association canadienne d’habitation et de
rénovation urbaine (ACHRU).
Bien que la palette des cours offerts par les universités demeure relativement stable
d'année en année, il faut savoir que des modifications sont apportées de temps à autre
en fonction des fluctuations de l'intérêt pour les sujets concernant l'habitation, de
l'arrivée ou du départ des enseignants et de l'affectation des ressources par les
universités, les facultés et les départements.
L'idée derrière ce bilan des cours offerts dans le domaine de l'habitation est que, selon
le CNRL, il existe des liens étroits entre la recherche sur le logement et l'enseignement
de matières qui s'y rattachent dans les universités canadiennes, ce qui se manifeste de
différentes façons :
•
Pratiquement tous les cours donnés sur l'habitation au Canada servent à diffuser les
résultats des recherches et à en expliquer les applications concrètes aux étudiants
qui vont entrer sur le marché du travail. Les cours sur l'habitation peuvent aussi
préparer les étudiants à réaliser eux-mêmes des recherches de qualité dans ce
domaine, soit dans le cadre de leur occupation, soit lors de travaux universitaires.
Page 1
•
Les manuels et le matériel de cours utilisés par les universités reposent en très
grande partie sur la recherche menée dans le domaine de l'habitation, tant pour le
contenu que pour les opinions exprimées sur les enjeux d'actualité.
•
La majorité des carrefours de recherche et d'analyse du Canada liés au secteur de
l'habitation sont hébergés par des universités et des collèges; et nombre d'entre eux
combinent la recherche, les efforts de liaison avec la collectivité et l'éducation.
•
Bien des chercheurs dans le domaine de l'habitation enseignent aussi dans les
collèges et universités, que ce soit à temps plein ou à temps partiel; par conséquent,
quand on cherche des cours, on trouve souvent par la même occasion des gens qui
pourraient se joindre au milieu de la recherche sur le logement.
Si l'on examine les implications sociétales plus étendues de l'enseignement de matières
liées à l'habitation, les professeurs de cours de niveau universitaire au Canada
établissent des structures de cours, déterminent les choix de lectures, assignent des
sujets de recherche et décident des notes à donner. De fait, ils façonnent les
perceptions que les étudiants auront probablement des systèmes de logement et des
possibilités de carrière, sans doute pendant des années.
En outre, ils créent des programmes de formation dans le domaine de l'habitation,
nécessaires pour se tenir à jour dans ce secteur dynamique aux multiples facettes, et
ce, même si leurs propres recherches peuvent être axées sur un éventail de sujets
moins large. L'élaboration des programmes d’études est un élément logique de la
détermination des lacunes en matière de recherche, de même que des données qui
manquent au départ pour réaliser ces recherches.
Qu’est-ce qu’un cours sur l’« habitation »?
Pour déterminer ce qui devait être inclus dans le présent rapport, on a utilisé six mots
clés et un groupe de mots lors de la recherche dans les sites Web des universités :
« habitation »; « logement »; « résidentiel »; « hypothèque »; « quartier »; « banlieues »
et « promotion immobilière », ainsi que leurs équivalents anglais. On a supposé que ces
termes permettraient de repérer la majeure partie des cours pouvant raisonnablement
être considérés comme ayant l’habitation comme élément central.
Néanmoins, des cours dont le titre ou la description ne contient aucun des termes
énumérés ci-dessus peuvent porter en grande partie sur l’habitation. La seule façon de
s’en assurer consistera à communiquer avec chacun des enseignants concernés.
Quelques remarques s’imposent sur les limites et les défis liés à l’élaboration d’un tel
examen. Tout d’abord, il est difficile de trouver rapidement des cours sur l’habitation,
même avec de bons moteurs de recherche Internet. En effet, les activités se rapportant
au logement des étudiants universitaires ressortent invariablement dès le début des
recherches. En outre, ces cours peuvent être intégrés à plusieurs disciplines. Les
établissements, écoles et facultés présentent leur offre de cours universitaires d’une
Page 2
multitude de façons. De plus, comme on l’a souligné précédemment, les cours
effectivement enseignés peuvent changer d’un semestre à l’autre. Enfin, les
descriptions officielles des cours et de leur contenu varient en longueur et sont plus ou
moins explicites quant à l’approche préconisée.
Profil des cours sur l’habitation offerts en 2010
En 2010, au moins 116 cours sur l'« habitation » étaient offerts par les universités des
provinces de la Nouvelle-Écosse, du Québec, de l'Ontario, du Manitoba, de l'Alberta et
de la Colombie-Britannique. Sur les cours recensés, 59 étaient donnés au niveau de la
maîtrise et du doctorat et 57 l'étaient au niveau du baccalauréat ou du certificat.
Le tableau ci-dessous indique la répartition des cours en fonction de la discipline et de
l’emplacement géographique des établissements, lesquels sont classés selon le
nombre de cours offerts.

Par rapport à ce qui précède, veuillez prendre note qu’un certain nombre de cours de
géographie et d’économie font partie intégrante des programmes d’études urbaines ou
d’urbanisme. Une ventilation plus détaillée des cours par établissements, niveaux et
disciplines est fournie à l’annexe B.

Cadres institutionnels et disciplines dans lesquels les cours sur
l'« habitation » sont offerts
Ce tableau démontre que les cours sur l’habitation semblent actuellement être offerts
dans l’un des trois grands contextes actuels.
D'abord, les programmes professionnels des universités sont offerts dans les domaines
de l'urbanisme, du commerce (immobilier) et de l'architecture, plus quelques
programmes dans les secteurs de la santé et du travail social qui incluent
habituellement l'habitation et des cours connexes dans le cadre de leur programme
d'études. Ces cours sont surtout offerts au niveau de la maîtrise et du doctorat, à
l'exception des cours de commerce. Les programmes menant à un diplôme
professionnel sont probablement la voie d’enseignement la plus répandue et la plus
sûre dans le domaine de l’habitation.
Ensuite, il y a des instituts de recherche universitaire qui sont axés sur des questions de
politique urbaine, comme l’immigration, les Autochtones vivant en milieu urbain et la
gouvernance municipale, et où des experts en habitation jouent un rôle de premier plan.
On peut citer en exemple le Centre for Urban and Community Studies de l’Université de
Toronto, le City Institute de l’Université York, l’Institute of Urban Studies de l’Université
de Winnipeg et l’Institut national de la recherche scientifique – Urbanisation (INRS) de
l’Université du Québec.
Enfin, certains cours universitaires et collégiaux sont créés par des professeurs euxmêmes, le plus souvent des professeurs de géographie qui s’intéressent au sujet et
obtiennent l’autorisation de leurs départements pour les offrir.
Perspectives
Ce rapport n'est que la première étape d'un long processus visant à réaliser une
évaluation complète et soignée de l'enseignement dans le domaine de l'habitation au
Canada.
Idéalement, il faudrait effectuer une analyse approfondie des plans de cours, des
manuels, des méthodes pédagogiques et des ressources affectées à cet enseignement.
Il faudrait notamment établir une comparaison entre les cours actuellement offerts dans
ce domaine et ce que les employeurs potentiels estiment que les étudiants devraient
prioritairement acquérir comme connaissances, compétences et information.
Il serait également utile de tracer plus clairement le chemin à suivre pour que la
recherche mène à une utilisation concrète des résultats obtenus, tant en milieu
d'enseignement que dans la pratique professionnelle.
Page 4
En outre, l'éventail des cours évalués pourrait être étendu afin d'inclure ceux qui sont
donnés dans les collèges communautaires. Un grand nombre de cours qui traitent de
gestion de la construction et des différents métiers couvrent des aspects clés du
système canadien du logement dans son ensemble. Ces collèges sont le British
Columbia Institute of Technology (Vancouver), le Southern Alberta Institute of
Technology (Calgary), le Collège George Brown (Toronto), la Cité collégiale et le
Collège Algonquin des arts appliqués et de technologie (Ottawa) et probablement
d’autres établissements.
Ce sont les personnes intéressées à l'avenir de l'enseignement dans le domaine de
l'habitation au Canada qui devront prendre en charge cette cueillette d'information et
l'analyse connexe qui s'ensuivra.

social. Il étudie la réalité de l'architecture par rapport à la notion d'habitation et contribue à une
théorie de la culture domestique, ainsi qu'à une histoire de la domestication de l'espace.
S'inspirant de sources diverses, les étudiants sont conduits à repenser les schèmes de
l'architecture sur le plan de l'environnement pour le corps néotechnique. Débutant par la notion
de «machines célibataires», le séminaire devrait conduire à une réflexion critique sur les
thèmes de la cybernétique, du «cyborg», et du corps prosthétique et posthumain.

équipements à caractère «social» au sein des grandes villes, en tenant compte des débats
entourant la redéfinition de l'État-providence. Il traite notamment des politiques de lutte à
l'exclusion; de logement social; et de services à des clientèles qualifiées de vulnérables. Le
cours met l'accent sur les contextes québécois et canadien, mais comporte également une
dimension comparative. Des politiques sociales d'autres pays (États-Unis, pays européens...)
pourront être présentées et analysées. Une place sera aussi faite aux pays en développement.
L'approche pédagogique favorise les échanges entre tous les participants complétés par de
courts exposés des responsables du cours.

JPG 1501H: The Political Economy of Cities (Graduate)
The physical form of cities is an expression of social and economic processes that are nested
and mediated at a number of different spatial scales. The reinvestment of inner city
neighbourhoods is, for example, a simultaneous expression of global labour market
restructuring, regional housing supply, and personal preference, among other factors. This
course addresses the political and multi-scalar context of contemporary urban forms through a
selective treatment of the relevant literature. It also examines ways in which economic and
political processes shape the built form of the city, as well as its governance, planning and
economic development – at local, regional, national and global scales. This course considers
ways in which the city serves as a site of accumulation and control, as well as a means for
negotiating or contesting inequalities.
JPG 1507H: The Geography of Housing and Housing Policy (Graduate)
The objectives of this seminar are to provide an opportunity for in-depth research and critical
evaluation of alternative systems of housing provision and consumption, and to apply the
resulting insights to current housing situations and policy problems. Three principal themes are
emphasized: 1) basic concepts relating to the structural, social and spatial dimensions of
housing demand, need and supply; alternative modes of housing provision and allocation; and
housing market dynamics; 2) the identification of current and emerging housing issues and
associated planning problems; and 3) evaluations of housing policies and programs and their
relationships to contemporary debates on social and economic policy, questions of equity and
efficiency, and urban policy and planning. The latter evaluations will be undertaken primarily
through the discussion of case studies of specific housing problems, policy issues and places.
Visitors from the government and the private sector will provide both informed and alternative
perspectives on housing research and policy.
JPG 1508H: Planning with the Urban Poor in Developing Countries (Graduate)
This course will focus on a number of topics related to planning in ‘Third World’ countries
including urban growth, employment (with emphasis on the informal sector), transportation,
environmental issues, housing, and land markets. It will draw on very recent research
conducted in cities throughout the world to illuminate some of the planning dilemmas that
confront policy makers in rapidly emerging urban areas.
JPG 1512H: Place, Politics and the Urban (Graduate)
The course examines the relationship between geography, politics, and governance. In
particular, it seeks to interrogate the theoretical importance of place, space and urban form in
the production of political and social values, practices, strategies, and discourses, and in turn,
analyze the implications of the place-politics nexus for understanding shifts in the direction and
form of urban policy, governance and citizenship. The course begins with a broad examination
of the theoretical bases for linking place and politics, particularly as this relates to the
construction of urban and non-urban places, with literature drawn from a number of sources,
Page 14
including geography, urban studies, political science, and planning theory. The course then
examines a number of specific cases, from gentrification as a political practice, to the politics of
homelessness and anti-panhandling legislation, and the political geography of regional planning
and municipal amalgamation, that inform and challenge our understanding of the relationship
between place and political praxis.
JPG1615H: Planning the Social Economy (Graduate)
The social economy is a term often used analogously with the ‘third sector’. It is construed more
broadly in this course as an economy rooted in the principles of social justice, democratic
governance and local autonomy. The course examines the concept theoretically, with recourse
to some canonical and more recent writings about the interface between ‘society’ and
‘economy’—e.g. by looking at foundational arguments for and against the idea of a selfregulating market and exploring recent literature advocating as well as critiquing the principle of
social economy. Analytical principles of the social economy will be explored drawing on Marxist,
feminist, poststructuralist and mainstream liberal perspectives. These are then brought to bear
on international experience in key sites of the social economy, namely, business and enterprise,
money and finance, work, and food. The course concludes with a discussion of the conditions of
possibility for ‘planning the social economy’.
PLA 1651H: Planning and Real Estate Development (Graduate)
Provides an overview of the Canadian and U.S. development industry within the real estate
development process. The course then covers the financial basis of urban development projects
(private and public finance); the participants; land assembly procedures; land banking; mixeduse projects; sectoral and scale differences within the development industry market and
locational search procedures. Finally, it addresses the interface of the industry with the public
sector.
PLA 1652H: Introductory Studio in Urban Design and Planning (Graduate)
This studio course introduces the basic principles and skills of urban design to students from
various backgrounds by working through exercises of sketching, research and design involving
such challenges of planning as housing, public space and transportation in their relation to the
politics and aesthetics of urban form.
AEC 1102H: Community Development – Innovative Models (Graduate)
This course involves the study of innovative models of community development in such areas
as housing, childcare, healthcare including mental health services, social service provision, and
education, as well as models of community economic development. There is a combination of
case studies (both Canadian and international), papers on alternative policies, and critical social
analyses both of why there is a need for community development and the significance of this
phenomenon for a broader social-change strategy. The community development strategies
utilized in the course are based primarily on non-profit and cooperative approaches.

SWK 4422H – Social Housing and Homelessness (Graduate)
This course examines a broad range of social issues associated with Canada’s housing system
and the planning of residential areas. The focus is on the social policy implications of the
problems lower income households and special needs groups have in accessing affordable
appropriate housing. This course examines a broad range of social issues associated with
Canada's housing system. The focus is on the social policy implications of the problems lower
income households and specific groups within the population (based on gender, ‘race’ and/or
socio-economic status) have in accessing affordable appropriate housing in good quality
neighbourhoods. The gender, ‘race’ and ethnicity aspects of housing issues are a particular
focus and permeate all sessions. A particular theme throughout this course is Canada’s rental
housing sector, which houses one third of all Canada’s households (and half of the City of
Toronto’s households). This course also focuses on the growing number of people who are
unhoused. People who are homeless require housing, some require support services (for
physical or mental health problems, or addictions) and all require enough money to live on (jobs,
job training, or social assistance). What do we mean by the term ‘homelessness’? What is the
difference between the ‘old’ (pre-1980s) and the ‘new’ homelessness? Who is homeless, why,
and for how long? What should be done about it? How do we prevent and eventually eliminate
mass homelessness?

This course covers current and emerging theories in the interdisciplinary context of urban
development, from a variety of planning-related literatures, including urban planning, urban
design, geography, architecture, cultural and development studies. Theories of contemporary
city-building are related to applied cases in urban revitalization and regeneration, with attention
to several metropolitan contexts, including for example, brownfields, waterfronts, neighbourhood
gentrification, housing and poverty alleviation.
PL8303: Retrofitting Suburbs (Graduate)
Our current pattern of low density, automobile dependent, single land use urban form is widely
recognized as no longer being sustainable. Yet suburban and exurban growth patterns have
largely defined urban built form of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Can the suburbs be
retrofitted to intensify and diversify land uses, and to meet the social and economic challenges
that accompany this growth pattern? Can transit be viable and housing sustainable? Can
suburban ecosystems and landscapes be redesigned or regenerated?? This course will
respond to these questions through a series of analytical case studies, speculative policies, and
creative design projects.

SOSC 3746: Cities as Neighbourhoods and Communities (Undergraduate)
The course considers local areas within urban regions and the people and processes that
create and alter them. Different meanings of the concepts “community” and “neighbourhood” are
explored. Other topics addressed include the relationship between urban planning and local
urban areas, designing community, and issues of inclusion and exclusion in urban
neighbourhoods. Students explore the ideas and issues raised in the course by way of casestudy investigations of a variety of Toronto-area neighbourhoods.
SOSC 3760: Toronto - Urban Growth and Community (Undergraduate)
The autumn term course examines the older inner zone of Toronto, focusing on processes of
growth and change - in the more distant past, more recently and today - that have led to the
urban communities we now find in this part of town. Its main elements are a series of lectures,
weekly class discussions and two walks through neighbourhoods in and around the city's
downtown. Each student is responsible for exploring a particular site in or around downtown,
reporting back to small class groups about what they are learning about the site and writing a
term paper about some feature of the site. The course is oriented to students who are members
of the Urban Studies Program and would like to do a close study of inner Toronto and to
students from outside the program who would like to try their hand at an urban fieldwork project
in a study of the city in which we experience our everyday lives.
GEOG 3770: Housing Policy (Undergraduate)
It has been often stated that Canadians are among the best housed people in the world. Yet, it
is also said that Canada has been in a continuous housing crisis for most of the twentieth
century. We will examine this apparent contradiction in the context of the provision and
consumption of housing. The course is divided into three major sections. In the first section we
provide a contextual framework for policy evaluation by exploring the attributes of housing,
housing markets and submarkets, housing need and demand, housing supply and finance, and
the justification for government intervention in the housing market. In the second section,
housing programs in Canada over the postwar period are surveyed and placed in the context of
the evolving welfare state. Emphasis will be given to three major tenures: home ownership,
private rental, and social and public housing. Several housing programs will be examined as
Page 18
case studies to see whose interests are served. In the third section we will consider a number of
contemporary policy issues, especially concerning households who have difficulty accessing
market housing. Examples of the latter include the homeless, women, immigrants and the
elderly.
GEOG 4170: Geographic Perspectives on Immigration, Ethnicity and
Race in Modern Cities (Undergraduate)

devotes most of its attention to housing. The complete curriculum for the Bachelor of
Commerce degree in Real Estate and Housing is presented below.
Real Estate and Housing Program (Undergraduate)
The Real Estate and Housing major in the B.Comm. program is one of only two undergraduate
programs in Canada that specialize in the real estate sector. It takes a multi-disciplinary
approach to the study of residential and commercial/ investment real estate. Topics such as the
development, financing, valuation, market analysis and management of real estate are taught in
the context of economic, legal, political and social factors affecting this large and growing field of
business in Canada and the world.
The purpose of this major is to develop the conceptual, analytical and management skills
required for careers in real estate and housing. Students graduate with a degree that can lead
to a variety of professional positions in the private or public sectors of the Canadian real estate
industry or they can continue on to graduate work in business, planning or the social sciences.
Given the professional and applied nature of the program, there are no double majors or minors
associated with the degree. Elective options enable students to select courses which support or
complement their primary field of study. As part of the graduation requirement all students within
the B.Comm. Program are required to complete 1.50 credits from at least two different subject
prefixes as listed under the B.Comm. Program Information section of the undergraduate
calendar.

market. It relates urban outcomes to interactions between market processes and planning
interventions. It is in this light that it interprets changing urban land use and transportation
patterns since the late 1940s, as well as contemporary urban issues. These issues are chosen
so as to underscore differences in the circumstances confronting different zones of urbanization
(core, inner city, inner suburb and outer suburb).

since residential land uses constitute about half of all uses in most communities.
2460G: Urban Development (Undergraduate)
Urban areas do not only vary in their form, structures, morphology, patterns of land use, and
historical processes of evolution, but they are driven by a series of interrelated processes of
change—economic, political, cultural, demographic, technological, environmental, social and
locally contingent forces. These forces operate at a variety of geographical scales ranging from
the global to the local. The task of this course is to understand the processes and the character
of urban areas. In doing so student will be exposed to: 1) the factors that gave rise to early
cities; 2) models and theories that exist to explain urban growth; 3) various distinct structures
and form of urban areas; 4) urban development processes and forces driving these processes;
and 5) government policies and urban management strategies. The course will be delivered in
various formats: formal lecture, in-class and tutorial discussions, guest lectures, and videos. By
the end of the course students should be able to apply various constructs to real world urban
issues.
3461F/G: Land Use and Development Issues (Undergraduate)
Critical examination of current land use and development projects; students are required
actively to participate in the discussions.
3463G: Housing (Undergraduate)
Geographers and other social scientists (and to some extent applied physical scientists) have a
long-standing interest in housing and neighbourhoods. As the single most important
material/durable good consumed/purchased by most households, social scientists are
interested in how housing is supplied, obtained and used. Overlaid on these concerns is the
geography of housing: because it is fixed in place housing is characterized by its location
perhaps more than any other feature, and more than any other durable good. The housing
market is necessarily a geographical market of neighbourhoods. Nowhere is this more apparent
than in the variegated urban housing market that juxtaposes unbounded life chances of
residents in gated communities against high-rise social housing in poorly serviced
neighbourhoods. How that residential geography comes to be, how it influences and reinforces
the everyday lives and socioeconomic position of its residents, and how the state responds in its
Page 24
housing policies and programs is the focus of this course. Accordingly the purpose of this
course is to provide an advanced honours seminar on housing and neighbourhoods from a
geographical perspective.
3464F: Financial Feasibility of Urban Developments (Undergraduate)
The object of the course is to expose students to the financial and economic underpinnings of
urban form and structure. A major focus is on static development feasibility models and their
application to understanding urban change. The course provides hands-on experience for
students to build financial feasibility models of urban developments.
4460G: Real Estate and the Cities (Undergraduate)
The object of the course is to expose students to various forms and categories of investment in

(Winnipeg, Manitoba) – 4 courses
UIC 1001: Introduction to Urban and Inner-City Studies (Undergraduate)
The course provides an overview of the dynamics that drive a city’s growth and that produce
change over time. It considers the social impact of urban change, with particular emphasis on
the interconnectedness of the different parts of the city and on the impact of urban change on
the inner city. It examines how these changes shape city politics, looking at the political interests
and problems associated with the commercial core, older residential neighbourhoods near the
centre, and burgeoning suburban and exurban areas. It also examines how the three levels of
government are involved in shaping and responding to these changes.
UIC 2001: Community Development (Undergraduate)
This course is an introduction to the idea of community development and community economic
development. The course considers the principles and philosophy of community
development/community economic development, and examines the key elements of CD/CED
including neighbourhood revitalization; housing development and rehabilitation; employment
development and training; and social enterprise.
UIC 3011: Inner City Economic Development (Undergraduate)
Popularly understood as low-income neighbourhoods near the city centre, and academically
defined as “the commercial core plus adjacent residential areas,” the inner city raises profound
political questions. Should downtown businesses help deal with the problems of poverty around
them? Do efforts by community development organizations to access resources from the
commercial core work to the advantage or disadvantage of the neighbourhoods? We explore
such questions, drawing on both academic and community resources, and addressing such
topics as gentrification; corporate responsibility; real estate, rental and land markets in
transitional neighbourhoods; community land trusts; community banking, red-lining, blockbusting, and strategies of community organization.
UIC 3430: Housing and the Neighbourhood (Undergraduate)
This course examines the complexity of shelter environments within the urban landscape. The
focus is on the North American housing market, the history of housing, and the way in which
traditional and non-traditional markets are defined and understood. The unique characteristics
of the modern city are examined as they are manifested in homelessness, marginal housing
forms, shelter-induced poverty, suburban decline and inner-city issues. Emphasis is also placed
on current/historical policy and program responses to housing-related issues at the
neighbourhood, municipal, provincial and federal level.

CPE 185: Mixed-Use Real Estate Development
The downtowns of Canada's largest cities include many dynamic mixed-use real estate
development projects. Technological advances, traffic congestion, and environmental concerns
are some of the many factors that are driving an explosion in mixed-use real estate
development planning and development. Gain an overview of the development process that
incorporates complimentary residential, commercial, civic and business uses into a single parcel
or development concept area. Learn about mixed-use planning polices and development
regulations, and; gain a deeper understanding of the development process from start to finish
using Calgary as a case example.

EVDS 697.51
Reconsidering Suburbia (Graduate)
No details given. University of British Columbia – 10 courses
University of British Columbia, Centre for Urban Economics and Real Estate, Sauder School of
Business (Vancouver, British Columbia) –
7 courses
In addition to courses offered as part of its full-time Bachelor of Commerce (B.Comm.) program
with a specialization in real estate, the Faculty of Commerce and Business Administration,
through its Real Estate Division (RED), also offers a post-diploma degree completion program
that leads to the Bachelor of Business in Real Estate (B.B.R.E.). The program requires the
completion of the Diploma in Urban Land Economics or equivalent plus additional real estate,
general education, and business courses. The real estate courses are delivered by the RED,
which is located in the Michael A. Goldberg Centre for Real Estate and Distance Education,
while an agreement with Thompson Rivers University will enable students to obtain the required
general education and business courses.
COMM 306 - Urban Land Economics (Undergraduate)
This course examines various urban issues from the economic perspective. These issues
concern urban land and housing markets, urban transportation, urban crime, urban sprawl, land
use policies, etc, and we study them as social equilibria arising from individual agent’s profit or
Page 28
utility maximizing behavior. The goal of this course is to: provide students clearer
understanding of traditional urban issues; provide a logical framework for analyzing new issues
students may come across in the future; make students more familiar with related data source
and computer programs to analyze them.
COMM 307: Real Estate Investment (Undergraduate)
This course is a one semester study intended to give students the tools for critical analysis of
public and private equity positions in existing real estate assets. Project analysis and evaluation
are presented within the context of understanding real estate markets as distinct economic
phenomenon. The course covers the basics of the economics of real estate markets, market
analysis, investment analysis tools such as pro-formas (real estate specific discounted cash
flow), debt financing of real estate, leasing and property management, appraisal and the pricing
of heterogeneous goods, real estate securitization, real estate in a diversified portfolio, and
information and process technologies and real estate. Academic lectures are supplemented by
a series of guest lectures by local real estate professionals. The course is built around an
investment analysis project.
COMM 405 - Real Estate Finance (Undergraduate)
This course is an introduction to the financing of real estate. The focus will be the operation of
the mortgage market, including the role of government, financial institutions and consumers.
Topics will include the regulatory framework, the competitive environment and the history of the
mortgage market. This subject matter will be useful since it can help the student (and their
friends or family) make better decisions about their own mortgages. Since much of this course
will be presented from the perspective of a financial institution or a Wall Street investor, it
provides knowledge and skills that a student would need for a career in this field. Special
attention will be paid to the techniques of mortgage valuation and pricing, and students will gain
the skills to solve a variety of quantitative problems associated with mortgages. In addition,
students will be exposed to issues related to mortgage-backed securities and other real estate
derivative instruments. This means that students will develop quantitative problem-solving skills
and a deeper understanding of financial concepts. These are applicable to other topics in
finance such as fixed income securities (bonds) and debt securitization.
COMM 407: Real Estate Economics (Undergraduate)
This course seeks to provide students with an introduction to economics that are the foundation
for analysis of real estate markets. Students will study issues that are relevant to the different
sectors of private real estate markets, as well as the relationship between the local economy
and real estate, and the role played by government in real estate markets. A regular feature of
the course is daily discussion of topics of current interest in real estate, urban economics, and
urban policy. This allows for an application of the more general concepts covered in lecture to
topics of immediate relevance. The major assignment for the class is a research paper.
COMM 408: Real Estate Development (Undergraduate)
This course is designed to give students grounding in the principles of real estate development,
by combining theoretical treatment of urban economics, development and real estate markets
with tools and techniques used by professionals to analyze the attractiveness of the sites for
real estate development and specific projects proposed for such sites. The course roughly
follows the various stages in the development process with its principal focus on the practical
Page 29
issues of selecting a site, designing a project, negotiating the maze of government regulation,
and financing the acquisition of the land and construction of the project. A heavily-weighted
aspect of the course is a team-prepared student project consisting of a real estate development
proposal for a mixed-use development.
COMM 434: Land Law (Undergraduate)
This course is designed to give Commerce students an overview of land law principles as they
apply in business situations. The course will be of relevance beyond the field of actual real
estate development, as land, in some form or other, is the subject of or security for, most
commercial ventures. While the course has been structured as part of the urban land program, it
will be of interest and importance to many students not in urban land who are seeking a broader
base of business-related knowledge.
COMM 486L: Sustainable and Strategic Real Estate Investment and Community Development
(Undergraduate)
The results of unsustainable human development seem evident worldwide. Society needs more
effective ways of using our skills and resources to create positive change. This course
considers whole-systems views and trans-disciplinary approaches to the challenges and
complexities of real estate in sustainable development.

PLAN 548D: Affordable Housing Policy and Planning (Graduate)
Hardly a day goes by that we are not faced with an image of a homeless person, either in the
media or in our daily lives. Homelessness is the manifestation of a complex set of factors, one
of which is a lack of affordable housing. This course will provide an introduction to affordable
housing policy and planning and explore key issues related to the current practice of affordable
housing planning and policymaking primarily at the local level. Federal, provincial and municipal
level housing policies and programs are examined in historical perspective. Present day issues
and challenges are explored such as homelessness and affordability including links with
sustainability. Planning for affordable housing involves many stakeholders and jurisdictions with
diverse interests ranging from the local and regional (density, land supply) to the provincial
(housing, health, mental health, addictions), and the federal (taxation, homelessness, Aboriginal
affairs). The private sector is increasingly playing a role. Although typically associated with
senior levels of government, addressing issues related to affordable housing and homelessness
are increasingly falling to municipal governments where the issue is most visible.

PLAN 561: Urban Development Market and Financial Analysis (Graduate)
This course provides a thorough introduction to financial analysis and market analysis for urban
development projects and for applications in urban/regional planning. The course emphasizes
quantitative analysis of the market forces that shape the growth and development of urban
areas and that determine the potential for, and viability of, new urban development projects. The
course examines the application of financial analysis to understanding the impacts of
development levies, density bonusing, and community amenity contributions. The course also
teaches tools for forecasting and analyzing urban development patterns as well as basic and
advanced techniques in financial and market analysis.
Planning 583 – Housing Policy (Graduate)
This is a dynamic and interactive course that introduces students to the broad spectrum of
policy and design issues related to housing in Vancouver. Students benefit from the instructor's
experience as a Senior Planner in the City of Vancouver responsible for the planning of the
downtown peninsula and the False Creek area. Course Objectives are: to explore the meaning
that you ascribe to the following: home, house, housing and neighbourhood; to become familiar
with housing policy and the preparation of housing policy documents; to explore the meaning of
affordable housing as well as redefining it within the current thinking associated with
sustainability and the challenges posed by climate change; to provide students with an
understanding of the history of local, provincial and federal policies and initiatives addressing
housing issues since 1900, including the introduction of zoning and general or master plans and
community planning initiatives at the local level and senior government policies addressing
affordable housing issues; to understand the importance of community and neighbourhood
planning, urban design and community amenities and their role in achieving liveable and
sustainable neighbourhoods and housing; to explore current housing issues and identify policy
options for: Sustainable housing and neighbourhoods; Alternative forms of housing (including
medium and higher density housing, “live/work” housing); Strategies for the provision of modest
market and affordable market rental and owner-occupied housing as well as housing for special
needs populations such as those with substance abuse, mental health and other health issues;
The role the public realm in the design and provision of housing; and to consider design issues
related to housing families at high densities, mixed-use developments and supportive housing;
and to increase understanding of housing and neighbourhood issues, policy options and design
solutions through walking tours and thereby understand the three dimensional and experiential
implications of neighbourhood and housing policies.

URB 620-4: Urban Communities And Cultures (Graduate)
This course will explore the social construction of lives, cultures and communities in urban and
suburban settings. Its point of departure is provided by recent ethnographic investigations that
seek to take account of not only the structural features of cities, but also the varying everyday
practices that people devise in attempts to shape more or less satisfying lives within complex
locales. A continuing search for identity, sociality and community lies at the heart of urban and
Page 31
suburban experiences, juxtaposed to the mundane tasks of obtaining livelihoods and making
homes. The broad but critical definitions of "community" and of "culture" to be developed in this
course oblige us to take account of the processes by which individual lives may be reconciled
with participation in formal and informal groups, including occupational, residential, lifestyle, lifecycle, gendered, ethnic and recreational communities.
URB665-4: Urban Housing Policy (Graduate)
Housing is one of the core elements of human life: where we live tends to determine a large part
of our personal identities and social lives. But it’s also a complex social and political issue that
affects public health, economic relations, cultural fabrics, our ecological footprint and most
everything else. As a result, urban housing tends to generate considerable debate around what
the role of housing is or should be. This is particularly true in Vancouver where housing is
clearly the most critical issue facing the city and intersecting with virtually every other critical
conversation about Vancouver’s trajectory. The aim of this course is to become familiar with a
wide range of housing theories and policies, be able to contectualize and evaluate them, and
critique various threads and possibilities..
