Course Description:
This is a practice-oriented survey course covering common methods of data collection and
analysis for planners. The course is not intended to train you to be an expert in any of these
methods, though you will emerge understanding the essentials. Other courses provide more indepth instruction in some of these topics.
This course introduces a set of tools that are widely used in urban and regional planning
practice. The focus is on the development of confidence and competence in qualitative and
quantitative problem solving. Four major topics include the following:
1. Gathering Your Own Data: In planning practice, it is frequently the case that standardized
data are not available and you must collect your own. Students will receive a brief introduction
to observation, interviewing, focus groups, and charrettes.
2. Estimating Needs: Planners need to understand the characteristics of the population they
serve. This requires learning how to describe the current size, age distribution, vital statistics,
and composition of that population. It also means learning how to project the characteristics of

the future population, using models of growth, migration, and interregional population
dynamics. It further involves estimating the resulting demand for facilities and services ranging
from housing to transportation.
3. Understanding Economic Conditions: The open nature of most urban and regional
economies has led to the development of special tools for studying their performance. Simple
methods will be learned for evaluating shopping behavior, regional industrial specialization
(economic base multipliers) and change (shift-share analysis). The more complex tools of
regional, interregional and multi-regional input-output analysis will be explored from the point
of view of the information consumer. Students will also gain an understanding of the strengths
and weaknesses of several measures of inequality.
4. Making Decisions: Informing real, risky decisions -- often nearly in real time -- is one of the
key tasks of practicing planners. Quantitative analysis of planning options, relevant
uncertainties, and decision-makers' preferences allows the effective management of
information in the decision making process. Students will learn techniques that estimate costs
and benefits from the distinct perspectives of developers, municipalities, and society as a
whole. We will also quickly look at several state-of-the-art Planning Support Systems.
Learning Objectives:
At the end of this course, students will be able to:
 understand several useful qualitative techniques;
 acquire planning data (primary and secondary),
 use spreadsheet programs fluently and confidently,
 perform quantitative analysis in support of a variety of planning decisions,
 clearly explain and interpret their own quantitative analyses, and
 critically evaluate the quantitative work of others.
Course Format:
There will be one three-hour class session each week and an optional 1-hour computer lab
(offered twice each week). Grades will be based on four problem sets, equally weighted (80
percent), 10 short assignments – graded pass/fail (10 percent) and classroom participation (10
percent). The problem sets, most involving desktop computer work, consist of exercises
applying the methods learned to small data sets. The short assignments consist of a variety of
very short exercises, in-class group work, blog assignments and several on-line reading
evaluations. Late Problem Sets will lose points (10+ percent), unless you have notified the
course instructors prior to the due date. No extensions for the Short Assignments.
Students are expected to attend class regularly. Absent students are responsible for all
material and course changes announced in class. This is a large class, but we encourage
comments and participation.

The problem sets assume basic familiarity with spreadsheet software such as Excel. In the first
few weeks at the lab sessions you will have a chance to brush up on your Excel skills. If you are
an Excel novice, you should immediately buy a book and start going through the exercises. We
assume that you can already navigate around a spreadsheet.
The lectures assume basic, non-calculus preparation in math, economics and statistics. The
reading assignments assume a willingness to review but not replicate more advanced material.
If you do not remember logarithms and exponents you should buy a review book.
Textbooks:
There are two categories of readings: required and recommended. You are responsible for
demonstrating knowledge of the content of all required readings, so read them every week
before class. Mastery of recommended readings is not required, instead these are shown in
case you want to learn more about a topic.
There are no required texts for this course. We will provide course readings in digital form for
each lecture on Sakai. However, you should also consider buying the following recommended
books as useful references for your planner’s bookshelf.

Course Web Page:
This course is paper-free. The problem sets, powerpoints from lectures, and additional course
material are available on the course web page using Sakai. You will also submit your short
assignments and problem sets and receive your grades via Sakai. To access Sakai, first go to
sakai.rutgers.edu. To log on to the web page, you will use your user name and password (the
same as your regular Rutgers user name and password). We will cover information on using
Sakai during the first lecture period.
Additional copies of all course material are always available in the course folder on the s: drive
(s:\516-s14).

To submit problem sets, use the “Assignments2” link from the Sakai site (on the left-hand side).
Upload your assignment as an attachment.
Professional Paper:
You will fulfill the writing requirement for the MCRP degree by completing a professional memo
in this class. The memo will be an extended and edited version of work completed from one of
the required problem sets. The course faculty member will sign off on this requirement on your
MCRP graduation form when you have completed your memo.
Academic Integrity:
Academic honesty and intellectual integrity are fundamental to the process of learning and to
evaluating academic performance. This is the responsibility of all members of the university,
and students share the responsibility for creating and maintaining an atmosphere of honesty
and integrity. If you have any doubt about what constitutes academic integrity, consult
http://academicintegrity.rutgers.edu/academic-integrity-at-rutgers.
Students are encouraged to study together in this course, but the problem sets you submit
must be entirely your own work. Some of the short assignments will be completed as groups.
