I found the Urban Economics course to be quite informative and relevant to my interests in sustainable urban development. As a graduate student in Paris, I was looking for a course that would provide me with a solid foundation in urban economics and policy. The course delivered on this, with a good balance of theoretical and practical content. I appreciated the emphasis on critical thinking and problem-solving, as well as the opportunities for discussion and debate. One area for improvement could be the inclusion of more diverse case studies, but overall, I'm pleased with the course and feel that it has helped me achieve my learning goals.

The course provided a thorough overview of these topics, with a focus on practical applications and real-world examples. I appreciated the detailed explanations of key concepts, such as urban agglomeration, spatial analysis, and cost-benefit analysis.
