Each spring, the Metro Growth Center sponsors a foreign enrichment course in growth management and environmental law.  Distinguished scholars from around the world lead small, focused seminars about planning and environmental law and regulations in their countries.  Typically, the course is taught by three visiting professors.

Students should register for the Comparative Growth Management Law (LAW 7397) course.  It is offered as a two or three credit hour course.  Students seeking to earn 2 credit hours will take an exam after each visiting professor’s seminar, for a total of three exams.  Students seeking to earn 3 credit hours will write a short paper in addition to taking the three exams.

This course is not restricted to law students.  Students from other graduate departments at Georgia State University and Georgia Tech's School of City and Regional Planning are encouraged to take the class.  There are no pre-requisites. 

The next foreign enrichment course will be offered in Spring 2013.
