B E 100, Introduction to Seattle's Built Environments, popularly called Hello Seattle!, is a 3 credit SSc General Education course, held 2:00 - 3:20 Mondays and Fridays, Winter Quarter 2025.
The SLN is 22401.
B E 100, Introduction to Seattle's Built Environments: Hello Seattle! offers interested students an opportunity to become familiar with built environment fields such as architecture, planning, landscape architecture, real estate and construction, through an exploration of the development of Seattle over a period of more than 200 years. The course offers lectures about Seattle’s built environment history, focusing on how buildings are created, how they shape the environment we all live in, and how they reflect who we’ve been and who we are. The course guide will provide directions for visiting sites around Seattle (via public transit). Students will complete several short creative photography assignments and take a series of quizzes on the course content.
The course will be particularly engaging for students who are interested in the city of Seattle, its built environment, how cities are planned and constructed, and what the UW College of Built Environments is all about.
